| Single Image HDR: Part 1
|
| (http://www.usa.canon.com/dlc/controller?act=G...) |
| What is High Dynamic Range? It means a broad range of light that can be measured and recorded by a single exposure. Very seldom can you get an entire range of light in one single photograph, particularly with scenes that contain a lot of contrast -- bright widows and a dimly lit interior, or a sky against shaded mountains, for example. There is always something lost in the process, some over- or under-exposed as with the examples above. HDR processing makes it possible to restore those lost highlights and shadows in a scene. In addition, the color hues and tones produce vivid colors never seen before in an image. All of this can be done without any artificial lighting. |

| Lighting Umbrella Basics
|
| (http://www.lighting-essentials.com/january-5-...) |
| Umbrellas are a staple of the lighting arsenal. You can certainly see them in use more and more as they regain some respect after the decades of SoftBox as king. I love umbrellas and have quite an assortment of them.
Silver Umbrellas are very bright. The light is contrasty and the efficiency is quite high. I am not fond of the way silver umbrellas create very bright highlights on faces, but they work well for lighting interiors and backgrounds. You should test your silver umbrellas against a white umbrella to see the difference in highlights. |

| HDR - high dynamic range imaging and photographs
|
| (http://www.slrphotographyguide.com/hdr-photo....) |
| The landscape photograph below was created with a technique known as high dynamic range, or HDR for short. HDR photo's are usually recognisable by their extreme exposure range. In other words, a greater range of shadows and highlights are visible to the eye when viewing the image, than would otherwise have been seen. This often results in an image that leaves other photographers wondering why their photo's aren't as sharp and detailed. |

| HDR Tutorial: How to create ‘High Dynamic Range’ images using Photomatix
|
| (http://www.vanilladays.com/hdr-guide/) |
| The main aim of this photography tutorial is to help people use HDR techniques to produce photos with a higher dynamic range than they normally get in a standard out of the camera photo. I will show you how to take a shot from the one on the left, to the one on the right.
HDR means ‘High Dynamic Range’. Using software like Photomatix you can create images with a more detail in the highlights and shadows than you can with a normal photo from todays digital cameras. Its similar to the old technique of exposure blending. Taking one photo for the sky and one for the ground, then merging them both together in Photoshop. HDR takes it a step further by increase the amount of detail in the image and allows you to create some unique photos. You can use it carefully to create natural looking photos or you can use it creatively to create atmospheric and emotive photos. The choice is yours as to how you process the end result. |

| The Lighting Ratio Mystery - Solved
|
| (http://tips.romanzolin.com/articles/article03...) |
| There have been a number of posts questioning and arguing the subject of lighting ratios. On each post there have been good and valid arguments but mostly based on theory, the use of exposure meters and mathematics. As most photographers know, the lighting ratio determines the difference between the highlights and shadows in a photograph and this theory is especially applicable to portraiture. Knowing how to control the lighting ratio is enormously essential to fine portraiture because it affects the final image both from a technical and aesthetic standpoint. |

| Digital Blending
|
| (http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/d...) |
| In nature when doing landscape work that includes sky, especially early or late in the day, the contrast range encountered often exceeds that which film or imaging chips can handle. It's therefore necessary to find a way to reduce the contrast range to something that the camera can handle so that the highlights don't burn out and the shadow areas don't turn inky black. |

| Increase Image Brightness Without Blowing Your Highlights
|
| (http://www.smashandpeas.com/increase-image-br...) |
| Lets face it, no matter how good a Photographer you are, not every picture you take will have spot on exposure, so inevitably, somewhere down the line you’ll be forced to tweak your lesser images in Photoshop. One of the more useful techniques I have found is how to increase the brightness of your image while holding back the highlights, so there’s no blown out areas. Here’s how to do it:
