High Dynamic Range, aka HDR

I feel like every time I update this blog I don't know what to talk about. I guess that is simply because I don't think anything I write about would be of any interest to anyone else! And that's because all I talk about is school or television, which is exactly what my life consists of from September until April. So here I am again writing about 4th year. I had my first official meeting with my adviser, Dave, on Thursday and it went well as far as I'm concerned. My starting point for this semesters work is photography and I've been experimenting with HDR imaging which is something I really enjoy. I find it just adds something more to the photo by merging multiple exposures together into one image. Mostly I've been researching the process and with thanks to Michael Coyne I found www.stuckincustoms.com which is a really helpful site and provides great examples of HDR images. Also the program that is recommended for the process offers 75% off for students! So you can't really complain there.

My main thing is once I start editing I can't stop. It becomes an addition! But below I've added one of my own HDR photo's. It's not anything special, it is just one that I took randomly but I like how it turned out. I find it interesting how many different things you can to with the HDR settings. So I'm loking forward to tomorrow because I'm getting together with a friend to start working on building images for fourth year. So hopefully I'll have some more to post soon!
