Did a quick trip to New Orleans again this morning, both HDR and nonHDR (photo heavy)

I got there around 5am and got lucky, it rained for about 10 minutes when I got there. I was home by 8am

I really like the one from Cafe du Monde! The third one and the last one are pretty cool too. Such a great city to take photos of.

[Marko]

Fun set AT - Shot 3 is my fave here though the processing/saturation is a bit heavy for me

[asnow]

Cool set AT. I like number 3, however unlike Marko I do like the processing and saturation. It adds a lot of drama but not over the top and looking cartoon like. I guess each to their own taste.

[Mad Aussie]

The last shot appeals to me most. I like the wet pavement leading me through and under the trees.

#1 is my favorite one as well and it is non-HDR.

Marko, I know most of them above are way over processed, just playing around with my HDR software, but I like that funky feel to them. My intentions today were to get some great shots and do as little or no cropping as possible. I like the last one as well because at the bottom left corner, under the light post, there was a pile of garbage that I cloned out. I impressed myself.

[Runmonty]

Cool set. Having never been to New Orleans and only knowing it through photos, it is unusual to see the streets so empty. I guess it was early & wet.

I really like the lines and movement in shot #1 and the colour in #4. Dont mind the HDR in the last shot. In #4 I like it with the building but the sky doesnt work for me

I wouldnt know you had been doing any cloning - great job.

Great strategy to improve your vision while shooting

I like these. The last one gets my vote because there are almost no distractions (except for the tiny red box in the middle of the scene which you could easily clone out)(and the flowers on the right).
