Re: [Gimp-user] HDR image generation
Except for alignment (which you can do yourself (fun, fun, fun!) or with Hugin) one such workflow that I have been using (not sure where I read it) is as follows: Align layers (suggest eyeballing the images to see which image seems to be in the middle, and then aligning the two others to it; this eliminates one image from needing to be aligned, and minimizes the distance the others need to go to reach alignment... [other manual alignment tips available upon request {although be warned: one of them is "Bang head against wall." !}]) Layer stack (assuming 3 images): brightest image, with added layer mask of inverted greyscale copy of layer darkest image, with added layer mask of [non-inverted] greyscale copy of layer middle image one then, if desired, selects each of the layer masks, and uses colors->curves[or ->levels] to alter each layer's contribution to the whole. If I remember correctly, if one uses more than three images, one should use an inverted greyscale copy of layer for each image that is brighter than the middle image. After fiddling with the layer masks, one can then "layer from visible" and then colors->curves or ->levels on this resultant image, as it will be a bit lacking in contrast. -Scott -Original Message- From: Helmut JarauschTo: gimp-user-list Sent: Sat, Oct 29, 2016 11:06 am Subject: [Gimp-user] HDR image generation Would someone please be so kind to share his/her favourite work flow to generate an HDR image out of a sequence of 3 or 5 images taken with exposure bracketing. It should be possible to align/register the images since I want to apply it to images taken without a tripod - my camera takes only about 0.3 seconds for 5 shots. I'd like to use open source software on Linux only. I have installed Gimp (GIT), G'MIC(GIT), hugin and enfuse/enblend.

Re: [Gimp-user] HDR image generation
Actually, a slightly updated version can also be found here: https://pixls.us/articles/hdr-photography-with-free-software-luminancehdr/ In short: LuminanceHDR to align, create the HDR, and tonemap down to LDR.

Re: [Gimp-user] HDR image generation
I had written about this using LuminanceHDR a few years ago. The workflow hasn't changed: http://blog.patdavid.net/2013/05/hdr-photography-with-foss-tools.html On Sat, Oct 29, 2016 at 10:06 AM Helmut Jarauschwrote: > Would someone please be so kind to share his/her favourite work flow to > generate an HDR image out of a sequence of 3 or 5 images > taken with exposure bracketing. > It should be possible to align/register the images since I want to > apply it to images taken without a tripod - my camera > takes only about 0.3 seconds for 5 shots. > > I'd like to use open source software on Linux only. > I have installed Gimp (GIT), G'MIC(GIT), hugin and enfuse/enblend. > > Many thanks for sharing your setup, > Helmut > ___ > gimp-user-list mailing list > List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org > List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list > List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list > ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
