HDR PHOTOGRAPHY

High Dynamic Range or HDR photography is a photographic technique that utilizes information that would be lost in blown out highlights and underexposed shadows to provide a more accurate representation of how the human eye actually views light. By merging three separate exposures—one normal exposure, one over and one under—and merging them in post production. The result is an image that contains more visual information that would have normally been lost in the highlights and shadows. This method is particularly suitable for shooting light sources, as the color casts created by different types of lighting are represented more accurately to what our eyes are used to seeing in the natural world.
