![High Dynamic Range : These photos are the result of blending 3 or more exposures to get amazingly high dynamic range images. A camera can only capture a narrow tonal range [aka "latitude"] at any one time, unlike human vision which is amazingly adept at this task. The resulting images have a strong dimensionality to them...and look more like painstakingly detailed illlustrations/paintings than photos. We are just not used to seeing so much detail in both shadows and highlights in one photo, so we assume they must be "something else". Although many different techniques have emerged over the years for exposure blending [like photoshop masks], the high-quality 16-bit images current digital cameras are capable of producing make a big difference in the end result of these blends. Plus, software dedicated to this task alone [Photomatix: www.hdrsoft.com] has really helped this whole process. I hope you enjoy this gallery, visit back often to see new images!](/photos/random.mg?AlbumID=1440287&Size=Tiny&AlbumKey=tiGnZ&rand=5024 "High Dynamic Range : These photos are the result of blending 3 or more exposures to get amazingly high dynamic range images.
