Improving on the past

Staunton Harold Hall and Church

This image was taken in July last year.  It was from a series of images I took in an attempt to master HDR.  I'm sorry to say it was a bit of a disaster as the camera was handheld and the camera only took 1 FPS.  The result of this is that none of the images really lined up.  I tried to run this through Photomatix and the resultant photograph was appalling.  However, at the time I knew no better so settled for it.   I have just reworked the images and have slightly improved on the result - but not by much.  I no longer use photomatix as I find the results to be bordering on awful.  You can so easily get carried away and produce some abominations - search through Flickr for landscapes and you will quickly see what I mean.


So I going to Staunton Harold tomorrow with my good friend David Manley.  I hope to improve on this photograph.  Lets see if I can.
