Thank you! These are HDR shots, my newest photo technique — high dynamic range photos that capture more of what the natural eye sees when looking at a scene. That sky is pretty close to what I really saw while out and about — that’s why makes HDR so cool!
The sky always looks awesome in HDR photos — that’s when HDR really shines for me! I didn’t have to do much but press the shutter and stitch together three contrasting images I took of the church. When I was done putting them together, it looked just like this — which is very close to what I saw last weekend!
Thanks — yes, these are courtesy of yours truly! I am thinking about putting together a post on HDR photography — would be fun to write about! It’s my new favorite trick. Makes even the most ordinary scenes interesting. (Though the church was gorgeous all on its own!)
ooh i play with HDR on my iPhone, but never thought to dry it on my DSLR! haha. thanks for the tip, I look forward to your post!!

Awesome shot. Look at that sky. Wow. And with the blue stained glass …. nice.
It almost looks like an illustration it is so perfect!
The sky in these pictures is unreal – it almost looks fake, but it’s still so striking and beautiful.
Wow – that second photo is very Van Gogh “Starry Night” with the swirling clouds.
That is a beautiful church!
Seriously amazing clouds. I need to take photo lessons from you Meg.
As beautiful as the church is, that sky is simply breathtaking!
Wow, those are beautiful photos Meg! They look like illustrations (which is a compliment). Thanks for sharing
