HDR? Whazzat? HDR stands for High Dynamic Range, and essentially, it means that the brights get brighter, and the darks get darker. It produces a pretty surreal image because the colour ranges get boosted. It’s quite an interesting effect and is actually pretty easy to produce. I’d definitely recommend trying it! It was a technique I picked up through the TWIP Photo podcast, and it’s definitely something I would also recommend you listen to if you’re into digital photography.
This image was originally taken at the Mt. Pleasant Cemetery one very gorgeous Sunday and post-processed using Photomatix. I probably could’ve boosted some of the colours a bit more to give it a bit more punch, but I really like the subtlety a slightly lower saturation gives me in this case.
