Chinese Gardens Revisited: HDR and IR

[night86mare]

Was a funny day, was sunny at first, then it rained, then it was sunny immediately after.

I hope I haven't overdone the HDR, had to resist overdoing it. It's just so easy. =D HDR is a pain in the ass for someone with a 1.6 Celeron laptop though.

All C&C welcome!

#1 - At the entrance, on the field right smack outside the MRT



#2 - *almost* the same scene in IR - I think something's wrong with my IR filter, all my IR shots are becoming soft and have funny marks when I PP sometimes. Don't know what's going on leh. =(



And then I walked up the large pagoda, and it seemed like a good view so:

#4


#5 - IR. If anyone could explain what's wrong with the filter it would be appreciated. It -used- to give very sharp shots, but now there's some funny stains on the reverse side.

End off with a twin pagoda shot (which is possibly the most done to death shot from Chinese Gardens, but I just have to do it yar.)

Thanks for viewing! =)
