BetterPhoto.com All Time Best Photo Contest Editor's Pick BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner   Contrast in Textures
Contrast in Textures
Sorry, I couldn't come up with a clever title for this one. While searching for images to capture showing texture, I found these leaves on a wet brick walkway. Using 5 exposures, I converted this one to an HDR image using Photomatix.

It's amazing how well these leaves pop against the bricks given the tone on tone palette, Ellen -- the HDR really worked for you here. I like this very much -- lines, patterns, details, light and composition are all great.
