love the HDR photo.

 

 

what is HDR? :blush:

 

HDR is High Dynamic Range processing... Basically you take 3 shots at the same time, 1 under exposed, i correct exposure and 1 over exposed. Couple of stops between each. The you combine them in Photoshop and then run them through a post processor like photomatrix and adjust to suit..

Some people like the effect, others dont!

Pretty much. The theory behind it is that the human eye can see a much higher dynamic range (range between light and dark) than a sensor in a camera for any given scene. So when you take a pic with say a really bright background, and a darker foreground, the eye can see the details in the light parts and the dark parts, but the camera cant so you either "wash out" the light parts (ie they become 100% white losing details), or it makes the whole thing darker and you lose details in the shadows. HDR tries to correct this by taking a number of images with different upper and lower brightnesses (exposures), which tends to be one too bright, one normal and one too dark. HDR software then allows you to combine them with the details from the relevant images into an image which has a higher dynamic range than the camera can see. If done right, it looks like how the eye would have seen it on the day, but it also allows you to play around with higher DR than the eye can see and give some really funky effects :thumbs:
