Last Sunday, 30-Nov-2008 was a beautiful day to take pictures. Clear blue skies with few clouds.

This was shot in front of my home, using RAW and post processed using Digital Photo Professional.

For those technically inclined, this is a High Dynamic Range (HDR) composite. To make pictures like this, follow these steps:

1. Take a shot in RAW with normal exposure. (Check your histograms).
2. In your RAW software, create 3 different exposures on the same picture. (recommended -2EV, 0EV, +2EV for landscapes).
3. Export them as TIFF file.
4. You can use Photoshop to combine them or use a third party software like Photomatix.
