HDR

Ok so here is a look at my very first HDR pic, using a point and shoot camera. It was a mission! Its not a great pic as such (scenery, objects etc) but thats not what I wanted. I just wanted to try HDR for myself, and the result was moderate success. Here it is

Yeah - it really punishes the pixels. Rather use flickr and embed the photo directly.
do you have crt or lcd?

it is critical that you calibrate an lcd
You have to calibrate any monitor - on LCD is you only need do it occasionally instead of on a regular basis with a crt. :)
 
I think this is the way forward
I prefer to embed the medium size image and link to the flickr page itself.
// processed on a dying laptop
// CRT will be added on the side shortly
Unless you have a colourimeter I'm not sure a crt is going to be worth it - unless you having one lying around.

Nice - did you opt for the bracketed exposure method or the cheaters method of three exposures from one RAW file? I use both ;)
