HDR Photos!

Experimenting in the world of HDR photos.  HDR means "High Dynamic Range".  Have you ever taken a photo of a place, landscape, sky, mountain - and when you look at it...you say, that's not how I SEE it when I take the photo?  That's because your camera is limited to a range of depth, and textures, and temperatures, etc.  Technology hasn't caught up with the human eye.  HDR allows you to take different exposure levels of the same shot, and combine them to give you more of the depth you see when you look at it in nature.


Normally - these clouds would be too bright, and the sun rising in the sky behind would be blown out and over exposed.  I couldn't get the color depth in the clouds from the sun and the greenery, and the texture all in the shot without the HDR method.  I'm looking forward to playing with this more!
