This is my first attempt at an HDR photo. After reading everything I could get my hands on (including buying an e-book giving me step-by-step instructions), I spent a few hours really trying to “grasp the concept.” I’m not sure how correct it is, but I sure tried hard. Practice makes perfect and you gotta start somewhere.
I used 10 exposures with varying shutter speeds:

Finished thumbnail:
![]()
Then I converted them with an HDR processor. This is where it’s supposed to get tricky. When I combined all the photos, it didn’t “pop” like it was supposed to. Maybe it was because I had my camera set to A-Depth Perception instead of on Aperature or Program. But next time I’ll tinker with the other settings. So what I did was grab items from the underexposed photos and placed them into the new hdr image and switched overexposed areas so that everything would pop. I’ve been looking at it for a long time and it looks ok, but sometimes it seems the longer I look at it, the more work it needs. I’m not sure. But I’ll post it anyway cause it’s my first one.
