The tea store and tea room at The Glasshouse. Pleasant relaxed ambience, friendly service, hundreds of teas to select from – an awesome place to visit for a lunch or a Devonshire Tea. I counted 121 boxes with teas at the background shelf, but there is definitely more as it continues to the left. So far, I tried about half of them and I will be happy to go for a second round after I am done.
Established in 1993 in Paddington suburb of Sydney The Tea Centre now consists of 7 retail shops around Australia and supplies tea to more than 500 restaurants and cafes. Annual turnover is about 25 tones of tea and with 180 different varieties each of them is said to be of a great quality with no artificial flavors or preservatives.
Image is created out of 3 bracketed exposures [-2,0,+2] shot hand-held and merged into a HDR. The HDR file was then tone-mapped into a 16-bit TIFF and post-processed mainly for contrast, color and light details enhancement.

Fantastic results. It looks natural, and more so, it looks real. Normally HDR tends to get artificial results, but I really like the overall mood you got on this one.
How did you manage to merge images with moving people?
Ariel,
There were few ghost artifacts after the tone-mapping as you correctly guessed. To get around that I got 1 of the shots, converted it into a HDR and tone-mapped with the same settings as true HDR. After that I just used the details of moving people from the tone-mapped single-RAW HDR and placed them over the ghosts.
Thank you for the interest!
Rod – beautiful results. Stunning capture of a cool scene, complete with interesting characters.
Rod, really good work. Well done.
Best,

Ирриально и ароматно, а самовар, как сердце постановки, как в духах в этом фото, есть верхняя-нижняя ноты и сердце.
