# Its only really apparent
when you view the source images. The dynamic range in the image above cannot be replicated by a digi SLR. The image above has about 4 stops of exposure.

# Err..
"The dynamic range in the image above cannot be replicated by a digi SLR"

# Use two spoons to open the neck of the balloon wide. Position a mirror with which to guide your mudmonkey into the balloon. Wipe. Wash hands. And Spoons.

# Your average camera only has about 2 stops of latitude (from memory)
in essence, it overexposes or underexposes dead easily. Well before the human eye.

So you take 2 or 3 pics, expose 1 for the sky, 1 for the ground, and 1 inbetween, then you get funky HDR software to merge it together. That gives you an image where you can see clouds, sun, detail in the shadow. That's it basically.

# A purdier pishur?
I like purdy ones. I have stolen yours to use as desktops one day.

# Your image appears to be, how can I say it, but an image
without fireworks to be honest dude. I'm not discerning any detail I might be missing, just a big absence of what?

I appreciate you are a photographic guy, like me; but that's simply lost on me

# You can't take a picture like that with a single exposure
unless you have the world's biggest flashgun. That you can't see what I've done makes me think I've done it right tbh.

# It's a nice capture given the light and everything
but I could get the same on even the most basic modern SLR; assuming you can fuck about with the ISO enough, and a reasonable lens

that is actually a tremendous picture, my gob is quicker than my fingers

# Well you can see low-contrast details of the darkish landscape and the clouds in the sky at the same time.
That usually goes wrong in photos.
