Took some pics right before the big storm hit Leamington nearby, trying my hand in HDR..
The rest of the pics are here.

HDR is for High Dynamic Range photography. It puts details in what you'd otherwise see bleached out or black from the shadows.
Check out these samples here.
I just have the Canon XSI, though most SLR's can do it. You need a camera that saves pics in RAW files, and can do AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing), which is pretty common nowadays.
It's basically taking a picture along with an overexposed and an underexposed duplicate (taken by the AEB mode, and requires a tripod or a steady hand since you need all three lined up with no change), and a program (like Photoshop or Photomatix) merges all three, taking the best parts of each.
It can be done with JPEG files, but JPEGs can cut off some of the colour details with its 8-bit limit, while RAW files use the camera's full 14 or 16 bit colour range.
I just used a few limited tools, but the really good guys can make them look pretty sweet.. Click on the one below for a decent source..

Nope, they are already boxed up and ready to be shipped tomorrow. They sure did sound good and fit nicely in the bumper cutouts though. Kind of a nice change for the time being, with the car so quiet. The neighbors will probably appreciate it :lol:
I am however soon enough replacing the whole stock catback with a Bosal/SPT v.1.5 catback. They were on clearance for $375+ shipping so I couldn't pass it up. For an 05+ legacy/OB, that's insanely cheap considering what is included (two axlebacks, a y pipe and a mid pipe).
Once that's on, I will be a running a full aftermarket exhaust (Grimmspeed->Cobb->Bosal). :bananapartyhat:
few pics of the hitch:
Now to buy a bike rack! :biggrin:
Ah, gotcha..^ oops, yeah. I didn't see that you already said it was HDR...I was asking if it was!
Yeah, it's technically HDR, but as some have pointed out, it's not in a scenario where HDR was necessary which is major contrast between white and black areas of the photo.Pretty fun stuff either way..
improved the ride height. still need to turn down the rear a little bit; just playing it safe to avoid rubbing. but that's the best part, so far NO RUBBING!

once i've got the ride height completely dialed in i'll take some proper pics with my SLR.

Looks good! But it could look better....improved the ride height. still need to turn down the rear a little bit; just playing it safe to avoid rubbing. but that's the best part, so far NO RUBBING!
