Thing is, I&#8217;m still learning to &#8220;see&#8221; an image, not just &#8220;look&#8221; at it when I&#8217;m composing a photo. Does this make sense? Photography is indeed an art form, and unless one is a prodigy, it takes time to hone.<\/p>\n<p>So, there were other shots before this, with the power pole (just barely visible on the right border) more prominent in the scene.<\/p>\n<p>What happens if I attempt an HDR conversion with THIS shot, and one of those, telling it to &#8220;align&#8221;? (Knowing the limitations means that even though it will do the best it can, there will be &#8220;ghosting&#8221; and other anomalies that will cause it to be a &#8220;de&#8221;-composed, or rather, mis-composed shot.)<\/p>\n<p>In this case, instead of getting something to be deleted, I was surprised at the effect. Eerie, spooky, like something you&#8217;d expect to see in an suspense film\/horror film poster, etc.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eyesofsilverblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Untitled_HDR2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-653\" title=\"Untitled_HDR2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eyesofsilverblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Untitled_HDR2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eyesofsilverblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Untitled_HDR2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.eyesofsilverblue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Untitled_HDR2-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mind you, I&#8217;d not print this for the house, but delete it?
