I just finished shooting an assignment for Swinerton Builders showcasing the new solar farm installation at Harrah’s Rincon Casino and Hotel. I ended up doing a couple setups to process in hdr for my client. The key to a good hdr image is a good steady tripod and good clouds in the sky. The hdr process has to be handled properly otherwise the image will start to look too much like an illustration. In this case the choice of hdr helped create the strong contrast elements and accentuated the shadows and made the sky more dramatic.
One of my goals was to highlight the elements and power of the sun and sky. This solar farm was a one megawatt facility. The CO2 savings would be the equivalent to the output of 77,600 cars.

Nice pic, nice you’re right about the clouds and the tripod.
