Description:
I'm toying around with more post processing my images using Photoshop, Photomatix and Lightroom. I just learned how to do a single-file HDR (tone-mapping 16-bit files, actually) and these are the results. It pulls out a lot more detail in the image, but it definitely prefers a low ISO, low noise image. This image had a lot of noise, but I still prefer the detail of it. The softness you see in this image mostly comes from my lens, a LensBaby 2.0. To get the full effect, you should view this image large on black. I captured this shot early one morning at the fish market in Phan Thiet, Vietnam. The fish market is mostly run by woman, wearing the traditional Vietnamese hats, Non La, to protect themselves from the strong sun which is about to rise. The woman begin working before dawn, selling and trading the evenings catch. Meanwhile, their husbands are fishing at sea. Part of the Vietnam Fishing Life set

Excellent!!
Lucas Jans says :22/Sep/2009 14:48:03
Thanks for mentioning the image, A. You're right, post-industrialism is as much a part of Vietnam as conical hats. I still prefer the romantic, nostalgic notion of Vietnam. :-)

Thanks Lain! I'll have to try more of these on my old shots. I found this tutorial very helpful: www.flickr.com/groups/73448529@N00/discuss/72157594198254...
VinaPix says :24/Oct/2007 22:28:40
This is great... the noise doesn't worry me at all, the impact of the image is wonderful! I've also tried some single-file HDR work, but my attempt are pathetic compared to yours... an instant Fave! Lets see some more like this...
