HDR 1st attempt

HDR stands for High dynamic range imaging. you basically take 3 pictures, 1 underexposed, 1 regular exposed, and 1 overexposed. You them combine the 3 images in photoshop, do some editing, and boom you have this awesome image. This technique allows a greater dynamic range between the lightest and the darkest areas of the image.


Here are the 3 images, the 1st underexposed, the 2nd regular exposed, and the 3rd over exposed:

-2 EV

0 EV

+2 EV

And here is the final edited HDR photo. Far from perfect but still looks pretty sweet:

This is just the regular edited photo, non HDR.

The end.
