HDR – High Dynamic Range Photography & Processing


High dynamic range photography, or HDR, makes impossibly unbalanced shooting situations possible. Want to shoot into the sun?

While HDR can yield unnatural results if not done carefully, it is another tool which can be used to create stunning images.
