HDR Photography


Many people find the resulting image in HDR attractive and these effects are interesting like a painting or like a cartoon. Some people believe that the results stay too far from realism, or find them unattractive because it looks unreal and it is reproduced a scene in a photo which is subjective.
“…Ansel Adams (the famous landscape photographer) developed “The Zone System’ to deal with the high-contrast vistas he encountered in California. By careful exposure and processing he found he could extend the film’s ability to record high-contrast landscape and create a black and white print with full detail. I’m attached to this kind of photography because it have a dream like quality that remind me of scenes from movies its make the photo unreal or like paint, the difference between sense the reality and illusion in a image and give it a fantasy magic look, Anything can be depicted as a art about taking fascinating photos and making them even more fascinating.Its funny how much controversy there is on HDR. Just like David Macdonald said. It’s a new technique that takes photographs to a different level. Of course it’s not the end all of photography. But why go all against it?
90% of the people aren’t photographers, they don’t care how the photo is done as long as it leaves behind an emotional impact.
Just like color photography didn’t end black and white, neither will HDR end standard photos.
