But I think of HDR as a tool to help expose a difficult scene for the camera sensor in a way that accurately depicts how I saw it at the time. I've read a few articles and books about how to do it naturally, and I think its a really powerful method for contrasty scenes. And lol about the composition skills rubbing off! I'm sure that's it ;-)<br /><br />Thanks, John -- that's actually what I'm using as well. I saw it on Phillip Colla's blog where he gave it a really positive review, and the price seemed right for having a chance to experiment with HDR (instead of having to drop ~$100 for a dedicated program).Pat Ulrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09443218594981001495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530726217448856252.post-64187973744522146592010-11-10T19:44:33.860-05:002010-11-10T19:44:33.860-05:00How are you doing your HDR?

One of the main light bulbs in my head goes off to use HDR in those sort of situations. If u can grab a trial of NIKs photoshop hdr plugin its pretty wild. Isn't it great having the misses to photograph you? If it wasn't for them we'd never have proof we use a camera! Haha. All the best!<br /><br />P.s. doesnt't hurt when they nail the composition either. I say it rubs off :-pAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
