Very nicely done. Not over-done at all.

Wow those are pretty good...I'm rather envious

take your icon/signature out of the center of the pic i found once i saw the icon i saw it in every pic and it distracted me. but nice shots that campus is very pretty.

that may be due to the camera being handheld for the 3 shot hdr

Great Shots!! I was at Seton Hall a couple of weeks ago visiting, it really is an awesome campus.

They came out great! If your using Photomatix, you can bump up the light smoothing a bit to get rid of some of the halos around the buildings so the lighting looks a bit more linear.

Non the less awesome shots, I love them!

Really nice shots, especially for your first try. Like slow4cyl said, just be careful of the halos. Other than that their really good.
#4 is probably my favorite, it's a great scene for HDR and you captured the light well.

The only one that looks out of focus is #7 (looks like you focused on the steps instead of the statue). Hard to tell though with the small picture size.

DPancoast · 05-01-2009, 05:14 PM

look really cool man. I love HDRs

SoStock92 · 05-01-2009, 09:12 PM

What monitor do you have? I am using an 8-bit 30" display and the structures have pretty significant halo'ing. I think sometimes people use a 6-bit panel and don't notice.

Stanic · 05-02-2009, 11:47 AM

I am using a Lenovo T61 laptop... but its not that I didnt see the halos, its that I didnt know how to get rid of them. Thanks for the tips guys!
