Cloud Gate #2

Posted by Hoshisato (Ealing, United Kingdom) on 4 June 2009 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

I guess this photo really nails down why the Cloud Gate is popularly known as the 'Bean.' Note the area on the underside of the Bean, the omphalos, of which I will be posting a distorted image tomorrow.

Playing around with the enfuse droplets of Erik Krause: I bracketed three shots (+/- 1 stop) and ran them through Enfuse. If you are looking for a good and free way to do HDRI, have a look at Enfuse at the PanoTools Wiki.
