Fine Terrace Dining: Wednesday HDR

 

Riga looks more picturesque now that we're home looking at the photos than it did while we were there in person. Here's a restaurant in the old town. This is three hand held photos (propped on a railing), combined and tonemapped in PhotoMatix and finished in Photoshop CS5.  We extracted the table settings, greenery & flags, then mostly desaturated and slightly blurred the background.
