Hi guys, sorry for the lack of photos and commentary, internet has been patchy to say the least. Currently at Thargominda, then on to Lightning Ridge and then we head home on the 20th.

Love the truck photo. What have you done to it, some sepia filter or something?

Thanks Neil. The photo is a HDR image with some post processing in Photoshop.
These are the 7 shots I used to make the image.
Hope this helps, feel free to come over while you're close by and I'll run through the process with you.
Edit: the fourth image is the one the camera sees as "normal". As you can see there is a lack of detail in the shadows and the sky is slightly overexposed.
