Chicken Coop 1 by hjbenson

Chicken Coop 1

The feed mill from yesterday was for chicken farming. Prior to WWII, this area was the major supplier of eggs and chickens to the Philadelphia and New York City markets. With improved transportation vehicles and routes from other areas, the chicken farming had all but died out by the mid '70s. But we still have lots of chicken coops around.

This is an attempt at using oloneo.com's free HDR beta software. I learned about it from Jenn (@shutterbugger)
Interesting history lesson Harry! You're grass doesn't look quite so astroturf-ish as mine did!
I like the software. I really have no idea what I'm doing on there at all...but if you had seen the before photo...yikes! I've been out today taking photo's with hdr in mind BUT I forgot to set my cam the way you suggested!

@shutterbugger Thank you Jenn; it will have a learning curve on the software.For the 3 I fed into oloneo, the exposures were: 1/640, 1/2500, & 1/160, the rest is in Exif Info

I think this turned out really well for HDR. It still looks pretty natural and not overdone.
