Sunset on the lake (HDR)

Today we are at the lake house and just had to post this sunset over the lake.

I'm trying out the HDR function on this smartphone. The image looks great but you have to hold the phone stock still steady for a few seconds to get a clear image.
It's like going back in time using this old method.

When I looked at the picture, my first thought was “Oh my… what a gorgeous setting!” I wish I could set up a canvas right where the picture was taken.

Great shot! Amazing that it was taken with a cellphone. Very well done!

It would make for a lovely painting. I'll be posting it on my redbubble website too.

That is a beautiful shot!! It's hard to believe it was taken on a cell phone.

It is pretty amazing what this phone can do but you have hold it super steady.
In HDR mode it takes three images and does some magic with them.
This is how the image came out with no filters or post production. Amazing really and it's not an expensive smartphone either!

You got some great lines and curves too. A really gorgeous shot:)

Thanks Pryde, the camera on this phone in HDR mode picks up so much detail. I must say. I was pleasantly surprised. First time I've really tried it out on a good vista.

Wow breath taking picture I really love the reflection of sun light on water

Thank you Cryptoking, I really like the silver and gold in the sky. It was unexpected but great.

That is quite stunning!!

Thanks Melinda, it's a lovely place.

What a beautiful capture ~~ the colours are gorgeous 🌅

Thanks Carrie, I was very happy with the result considering it's from my smartphone.

The smartphone can be a very capable tool.. especially when the user has a great eye for photography ~~ you got a beautiful shot!

Thank you @carrieslens I'm glad you enjoyed it. tip!

It surprised me that you took this with your phone. The details are superb.

They've come a long way, baby

You said you have to take three shots in a row to achieve this effect?

It is pretty incredible, I agree. The high dynamic range (HDR) mode takes three images simultaneously and composites the various tones captured into something greater than the basic capabilities of the camera.
Many newer smartphones have this capability but you have to hold it very still to avoid blurring.

Gorgeous light and colors
The HDR effect worked real well

Yeah it was a bit of a surprise to me too. The HDR function works really well.

I seldom take photos with my phone but I may have to try it out

I've had the phone almost a year and just thought I'd give it a go.
Most smartphones have HDR and with your eye, you'll get something amazing I'm sure.

awesome sunset photo shot

Simply spectacular, my friend.
