Warm-Up

1. My favorite photo is of a mom and daughter with curly hair and the daughter is sitting on her mom's lap.

2. I think most could but some would be taken on a DSLR camera.

3. I think some of the apps used allowed the photograph to have more emotion and feel to it. I think it also helped add to the photos.

4.

  • I think I would use certain apps to edit certain things like saturation, focus, and contrast.
  • I think I can also get advice from other photographers and see others point of views for photography.

HDR Photography Intro

1. What manipulations to the camera will you need to make to create an HDR image?
2. What equipment will we use to take this type of image?
3. What is the reason someone might take an HDR image?
4. What can we expect to happen with the images once we merge them together, what will we see that we might not have seen with just one photo?



  1. To create an HDR image, you must take multiple photographs with varying shutter speeds and aperture combos.
  2. You'll need a camera, tripod, and HDR photo-blending software.
  3. Many people like to take HDR photographs because of the outstanding beauty of them. HDR photographs transform reality into a high-def dreamscape. 
  4. Once the images are merged, you can see more detail of a image or it can create a better photograph that is visually more eye-appealling to the viewer. HDR photographs also make the photograph look more like you were actually at the place the photograph was taken. It also helps with lighting and focus points. It overall allows you to produce the best photograph you can possibly take.
