Today I went on a bike ride to take advantage of the lovely weather and took a camera with me in the hope to try (warning: geeky word usage) Automatic Exposure Bracketing to create High Dynamic Range images (HDR) (I think I need a lie down after that sentence) And these are the results. Basically it is a way of getting all of the tonal range your eye sees into a picture by taking different exposures of the same scene and combining them. I quite like a few of the effects, I think it has worked best on the photo of Berkswell Church, it's kind of surreal, almost film-esque. I used some software called Photomatix Pro as I wasn't getting the results I wanted in Photoshop, I think I need a little more practice, I shall persevere! I need to take a tripod out with me and maybe even a remote to make sure I'm not moving the camera as it causes it to have these funny double exposure "ghosts". Pleased with it for a first attempt though!
