Part two talks in more detail about using Photomatix Pro, and how to use it to get a great looking HDR image. You can use our promo code PPS15 to save 15%. There’s also an HDR Flickr group you should check out, and you can see some of my HDR work on my own Flickr page, also here is the HDR panoramic photo that I made.

People in HDR, and here is a few that I shot to give you some ideas…
This was taken at sunset. The light was very low, and I had to use a high iso. The resulting image came out a bit grainy, but the effect was very dramatic. It gives us some food for thought! Even though this is not what you would think when you thought about HDR, it gives a different aspect and has a lot of mood.

B&W HDR

This shot was taken at the beach around sunset. Again a three shot HDR using auto bracketing, it gives off plenty of drama and though the subject has to stand very still the resulting image is just what the doctor ordered.

This is another Senior shot. Doing this is HDR gave it lots of dynamic detail that would not otherwise be possible.

Pick of the week this time was submitted by listener Greg. It a nice (and simple) javs script you can use on your website to make a sideshow. It’s free so just read the direction and your off.

That about does it for this week. You can send questions or comments to prophotoshow@gmail.com. Have a great week… Gavin

  1. I have a question about HDR. Can you first take one photo in raw, then save from the raw viewer one photo as a normal digital negative then save one two f-stops hi then one two f-stops low. Then use Photoshop to put all three photos together as one HDR photo. Thank you for your time.
