Why do I shoot into the sun? Can’t help myself. Noticed a sundog as I was wandering around northern Arizona one morning. The sun itself is blown out in the image, but it matches up nicely with the hole burned in my retina as I set the shot up. 😉
HDR (high dynamic range) image constructed from three exposures.
I was exploring a Montana country road on a hazy summer afternoon. Conditions weren’t the best so I took an HDR (high dynamic range) set of 3 exposures and forgot about them until today. Usually I go for more realistic results but it just wasn’t working here – so I messed around with the HDR processing to see if I could make anything of it. For better or worse, here it is…
This is an experimental shot that combines two techniques. It is a panorama – four images combined to get a wide final image. Each of the images used to create the panorama is an HDR (high dynamic range) image – three exposures (one overexposed, one normal exposure, one underexposed) combined to bring out color and detail beyond what you can get with a single exposure.
