The HDR adventure!!

Day 12
The bright colors and range in tones and exposure is not something that happens by chance. There is some alterations made to the images. I start out with 3 images of different exposures, combining them with this software I have will combine them all to produce this image. Called HDR!
This is my first attempt to produce an HDR image. There will be lots more to come! For all those who are new to this thecnique, here is a little description to help you understand more.
HDR-High Dynamic Range Imaging is a set of techniques that allow a greater range of luminence between the lightest and darkest areas of an image. This is greater than standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods. This wider dynamic range allows HDR images to more accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to faint starlight.
