Man, rough crowd. hahaha

Well, right now people have been posting the HDR photos in the subject matter categories, but I suppose the argument could be made that there is a separate Infrared forum. I could go either way on this one.

I have very thick skin, I expressed an idea, it seemingly has not met with any intelligent discussion so I will not persue any further. Thanks for your comment 'groovyone'.

Don't take it personally. I think they were meant in jest.

I'll bring it up with the mods.

I find it rather unfortunate that HDR is not met with open arms here. I beleive an HDR forum will happen seeing as there is an Infrared forum as Groovy stated. Shoot, even the least popular forums, Underwater and Photojournalism have there own place. I'm quite sure Abel will address HDR once he narrows down his task list.

I don't think it is an issue with it not being accepted. My concern is that there could be some confusion as to where to post a photo. You could have a killer car photo for Transportation that also happens to be a cool HDR. I suppose in that case the op would choose where to post it depending on the type of CC they are seeking.

I would love to see an HDR forum. I yearn to see more, more, more!!

Not to mention I would really like to learn more about it. I lack.

I would also like to see an HDR forum. I wanted one way back when ...
HDR section

I think there will be a better chance now. The processing for natural looking HDR is so much easier now that the pros are moving that direction. I don't even carry grad ND filters around anymore. They didn't work very well in some situations (mountain silhouette for example) anyway. I do still carry NDs though.

Patti

I've given it a look and I dont see there being a need for it since HDR is more of a processing technique than a shooting subject matter as our sections have been divided up by so far.

For instance the images in the first post can easily fall within 3 other Showcase Sections such as City Life, Landscapes & Transportation.

Don't worry, Abel turned down a black and white forum too :)
