High Dynamic Range, Low Output
by admin on Oct.03, 2009, under Random Musings
A couple of months ago, I found myself sucked in to the world of high dynamic range (HDR) photography. HDR is a melding of photographic technique with certain post-processing, er, processes. The general notion is to take several captures of the same image, but at varying exposures. It is easiest to fix the aperture and vary the shutter speed, thereby eliminating any focus issues, which would be nearly impossible to deal with later (although, I am toying with the idea of doing it the other way around just for grins).
The resulting images can be anything from normal-looking, where the processing is not apparent, to surreal and impressionistic. I tend to go in for something in between the extremes. One of my images is below. You can click on the picture to see my small HDR gallery:
