Seufert organ from 1743 in the former abbey church in Ebrach
  • @Colin: I know the picture, of course. The rosette alone is not that difficult. If you take the organ into the picture it is always too dark because the church only has windows in the upper part. I have summarized three differently exposed pictures using LRenfuse. The smoothing of the edges of the window took some time.--Ermell (talk) 20:51, 10 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Enfuse isn't the best program for HDR. You might be better off trying Lightroom's own tool (if you have a current version) but the best I have found is PtGui and then taking the 32-bit TIFF back into LR. If you want me to experiment for you, drop me an email with a link to the raw files and I'll send you back a JPG. -- Colin (talk) 07:58, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I assumed this high resolution JPG was the result of a stitched HDR. Rather it is actually using the high-resolution mode of the camera. I think it is remarkable that one raw file could be processed to capture the dynamic range here. However, the actual resolution captured by the 24-200mm (equivalent) super-zoom lens is much lower than the 78MP presented here. Some effort has been made to increase the apparent sharpness, but at the expense of a loss of realism and too much NR. So, for this kind of scene, I still think "our finest" techniques are stitched HDR, and this image looks a bit too over-cooked for my taste. I think therefore my vote is  Oppose despite having some remarkable qualities. -- Colin (talk) 13:28, 16 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • PtGui needs several exposures to generate an HDR file. I think it does a better job than Lightroom's own HDR . If you had taken several exposures (with exposure bracketing) then we could have tried this. As it is, I'm impressed that you got the detail out of the window on this one exposure. -- Colin (talk) 07:58, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
