Fair Goers by skipt07

Fair Goers

Today was the second day of the Balloon Quest in New Castle, PA. However, the possibility of thunderstorms moving into the area kept the 25 balloons from inflating and launching. This didn't stop the fair goers from making the rounds of the concessions and rides.

Bummer...but the clouds are beautiful!

Wow! What a great sky, Skip! With the moon even! Great shot! Did you HDR or tone map this pic?

This is wonderful...whichever processing you used makes it look like a painting!

@kerristephens - Thank you very much Kerri!!

@marlboromaam - Thank you Maggie!! I downloaded a trial of Photomatix because of some of the examples I have seem of others photos using it. But of course, it puts watermarks on the finished product. So I opened it in Photoshop and tried to mimic what Photomatix did by tone mapping. Not bad but I liked the Photomatix print a little better and it was easier to render in Photomatix.

@lynnb - Thank you very much Lynn! Please see my explanation to Maggie of what I did.

@mandyj92 - Thank you Amanda very much and thank you for the Fav!! I appreciate it!

@skipt07 Ahh! Photomatix is the best HDR app there is. Tone mapping in PS is good though, too. I use both myself. Haven't done too much HDR lately. Maybe soon.
