Subject:HDR-Workflow: Vienna Metro Praterstern revisit

Thread:


Some of you may already know one of my favourite personal projects: The 
documentation of the Vienna subway extension - a personal photography 
milestone every time i visit the site.  ;-)
This year, i worked with a relatively consistend HDR workflow and i'm 
quite happy with the outcome.

Capture: Fuji S3 with Nikkor 10mm Fisheye, extended DR + 3x2 EV bracketing
HDR merging with Photomatix (it has to be said the the new ghost removal 
works excellent)
Stitching: Control point creation with PTGui (intermediate tonemapped 
images), stitching with Hugin
Tonemapping: Photoreceptor (binary from the "HDR-book")

Where possible, i did tonemapping before stitching. This divided the 
stitching process in 2 different workflows:
Because of doing "automatic" tonemapping (letting decide the software 
how much DR has to be mapped) i ended up with 2 types of panoramas
 - panoramas with sectors having evenly distributed lights and shadows 
-> LDR stitching
 - panoramas with sectors not having full DR in one captured sector -> 
HDR stitching

See the "2007" panoramas at:

I think, it's time now to re-work the older ones...   :-\

Best regards
Bernhard
