Technique Page - HDR


What Is It? HDR stands for High-Dynamic-Range Imaging. The technique produces a greater dynamic range of contrasts and luminosity within a photograph.

The technique can be produced with specific HDR-enabled cameras, or it can be applied with a few steps on Photoshop.

Step 1: Set up the camera like normal, preferably on a stand/tripod.
Step 2: Take a series of the same image but with different exposures, some below 0, some above, and one at 0.
Step 3: Upload the images then open Photoshop.
Step 4: File > Automate > Merge to HDR pro.
Step 5: Select the images you want to use for the HDR piece, including a range of different exposure sets.
Step 6: Alter the sliders for the image until you are happy with the result. Print/save like normal.
