So What The Heck Is An HDR Image, Anyway?HDR, or High Dynamic Range, photography is different things for different photographers. For me, it's a way to radically increase the dynamic range, depth and detail of my photographs to get an image that's much closer to what the human eye can see than is usually possible with a single exposure image. If one is shooting in a studio, or in some other controlled-light situation, the shortcomings of the DSLR sensor can be dealt with by placing light sources as needed. But I work outdoors, and don't have the ability to control Mother Nature's lighting choices, so for me HDR is amazing. I always shoot in Camera Raw, and I shoot from 3 to 9 exposures of every image I want to capture. Camera Raw captures lots of information that a jpeg image doesn't, so if one is serious about image control, there's only one way to shoot... Camera Raw. However, Camera Raw images don't look very good. Here's an example. This is the middle exposure of a 9-image set I shot at dawn at Atlanta Country Club in October.
