Door photo scary 02

And it is you who was right because, logically, we are in the presence of a front door, it is ajar towards the inside of the awful house !

As explained in Youpia, it is done with the help of the software PhotMatix so yes, it is hdr.

For the shaft angle, I agree that this photo may be used in a photo montage so I await your proposal with impatience .

The photo is vertical at the origin.
The walls to right and left were filled shelf not very photogenic (as you can see one end in the bottom right). To have it in format to bottom of screen so I added the black to 100% to amplify the dark side.

Even with the benefit of hindsight, I don't think I had another possible choice for the framing.

It's very surprising, what you say, Evalias (about the head). Would you believe I had the same impression as you when seeing the thumbnail : I thought it was the silhouette of a huge statue, style, pharaoh of Egypt ! To say.

The problem is that it is done from a photo in RAW format so I can hardly put it on the forum.
However, I have saved my settings in PhotoMatix:
pmtm:Luminosity 10
pmtm:Strength 100
pmtm:ColorSaturation 52
pmtm:WhiteClip 0. 000
pmtm:BlackClip 5. 000
pmtm:Smoothing High
pmtm:Microcontrast High
pmtm:Microsmoothing 0
I saved the Tiff format to keep the max of info.
The problem of achieving this from a single photo, it is that the dark areas come out with a huge noise .
So I went then in PhotoShop to hide the areas noisy (bottom right and left) with a black layer, a layer to enhance the highlights and then a bit of contrast pushed, which to me seems to suit this kind of scene.
But the most important thing, to me it seems, these are the settings PhotoMatix and save as tiff.

Ok thank you for your clarification, I'll make good use of it, and it is also good to know for the shelves and the rest of the photo in any case nice result, and a perfect for your explanation.

I was also thinking about an answer (d) style : I rush inside to get my gifts, because I've had a fall without doing on purpose on the house of santa claus .

Cane against chainsaw held by a crazy psychopath, I want to take pictures me personally . My instinct as a photographer told me that there is going to be show at capture (although I know not if this is the right word to use in your case ).

A photograph is an image made with light (see the encyclopedic definition) so This is a nice photographic image !

It is the idea indeed, but in truth, it is one of the doors of the house where I had already immortalized the attic... But if this, remember .

I had thought of this before seeing your reply. I find that the black area is a bit too much, but I want to follow you... You push the door to discover yet another treasure in photography. Your treatment pleases me very much.
