No match
This High Dynamic Range (HDR) photo was taken in the early morning hours at Calgary International Airport (YYC). Our flight was going to Toronto. While waiting for the crew to get ready, the sky was giving us a nice show, which reflected in the aircraft's body.

Not a major fan of the over-used and over-abused, totally phony HDR syndrome, but this shot is quite excellent, in most every department. A keeper, for sure. Evidence that even an abused thing like HDR and "lens flare" (and other such instantly identifiable conceits) can actually be of value, when properly employed.

Thanks, excellent shot! I love dawn/dusk shots, and this one is beautiful. @Elliott Barer: Since this is an HDR image, that will have the side effect of removing some noise. Also, he probably started with a higher resolution and the reduction would also remove noise. However, camera settings can also affect this quite a bit. For example, ISO settings are a balance between light sensitivity and graininess. Higher ISO shots have higher light sensitivity, but are also typically more grainy. For HDR you would typically use a low ISO and intentionally "bracket" the exposure so that some shots are under-exposed and some are over.

Thanks for the update Philippe Clairo! I don't suppose you could email me a copy (-: I'm a real aviation fan and I'm amazed by the quality of your work.
-
SmugMac, I did submit a 2560x1600, but that you mention it, I do not know why it's not available in the download list. I sent an inquiry and I hope I'll have an answer. Thanks for noticing, and thanks for your comment!
