HDR Photography


High-dynamic-range imaging (HDRI or HDR) is a set of techniques used in imaging and photography to reproduce a greater dynamic range of luminosity than possible using standard digital imaging or photographic techniques. HDR is used to add more dynamic range to photographs, where dynamic range is the ratio of light to dark in a photograph. What I like about HDR Photography is that it exposes the little details and makes the photo "POP"!



To create a HDR photo you will need a digital camera for the exposure bottoms. Next you will need to find a great view of something, somewhere or someone. Then you will press the plus (+) and minus (-), button and that will show the different exposure numbers, usually from a negative number to a positive number. Then, take seven photos with seven different exposure numbers so you can see the difference between the light and dark photos.





HDR Photography is way different from automatic HDR functions. Automatic HDR isn't clear enough and it might not be the way you want it to look. Also, it makes it less exposed which means LESS DETAILS. With HDR photography it gives you a choice between how light or dark you want it and it exposes it more to show more details.

  2. Your landscape image is awesome with all those colors! I really like how surreal it looks. I think that you could improve by making the portrait more surreal and maybe you could fix that little orange blob by your subjects head.

  3. Your Landscape is amazing! (The Sky Is Awesome!!!! XD) Your cut out could have a little more work. But overall, your Rule Of Thirds perfect!

  4. I really like how your subject looks like it's looking at the word. However, I suggest lowering the opacity and maybe a drop shadow. Another thing is that you have this weird brown thing around her. I'm not sure if was intentional but, it looks out of place. Great rules of thirds though.

  5. I really like the colors in the sky! I think that you could've fixed that orange spot above the girls hair, but I I really like how surreal both pictures are.

  12. Surreal, Cut-Out Quality, Focal Point,
    Rule of Thirds, Custom Layer Effects
    Awesome surrealism and amazing colors! However, your focal point could be a bit higher to be in the rule of thirds perfectly. Great custom layer effects.

  13. Awesome landscape photo! Maybe try to position your subject a little more in the frame so she isn't getting cut off. Really great job though.

  16. I love the surrealism of the photo! The cut out quality could've been better but the word has great colors that match the photo and just kind of brings the picture together.

  17. Wow! You nailed the surrealism, it looks great! I feel as if your text could be placed a bit differently and be slightly more transparent, but great job choosing a word and font that match!

  18. I really like how your subject is looking away from the camera.
    You may want to enlarge your word a bit.
    Your background is very nice, great sky.

  19. Nice background. The sky colors really pop out. Also her arm and hair gets cut of a little and if it was moved a little it would look even better. But overall it looks really good.

  20. Good job!Your text is great! I think that you could have made your subject a little higher on the rule of thirds. Good job refining your edges.

  21. Great job Ehu, Really like the different colors and the details are amazing! I don't know if that is a stroke but maybe remove that and work on refining the edge of your subject and maybe enlarge the lettering. Really great picture and I really like your overall project. Good Job!

  24. Awesome photo! It looks really surrealistic. One thing you can do to make the photo better is to make the test pop out just a little more. But overall, I think my favourite thing about this photo is that the colours really match.

  25. I absolutely love your pics and the surrealism!
    I think you could improve on the cut-out image of your subject and get rid of the brown stroke that is around her.
    Over-all you did a great job... I especially like your landscape image.

  26. Great surrealism, but your cut quality could've been improved.
