PHOT 205 ~ High Dynamic Range

Reproducing the full range of tones or brightness values seen by the human eye is one of the most fundamental challenges in photography. Capture, display and print technologies are all limited when we compare them to the ability of the human eye to see a full range of tones. While it was impossible (even with dodging and burning) to do so before, we can now exceed the range of brightness that the human eye can view at one time. However, when dealing with high dynamic range images and HDR software and techniques,  it’s important to remember there are simpler methods that may perform equally as well.
