Do the 'Impossible': How to Create Exciting Photographs and Effects with Cutting Edge HDR Photography

Discover how photographing in previously hopeless lighting conditions is now possible, with tips on new High Dynamic Range or HDR photography.

Boone, NC (PRWEB) September 25, 2008 -- Now you can take great photographs despite challenging light conditions, or learn to create astonishing and artistic high quality visual effects. What photographers used to think was virtually impossible just got a whole lot easier with High Dynamic Range or HDR photography.

In this week's free 7 Photography Questions podcast with host Dr. Audri Lanford, master photographer Tony Sweet, the author of four books and hundreds of articles, answers 7 of the biggest questions about HDR photography -- which is one of the most exciting new areas of digital photography.

The photographer can emphasize shadows or tone them down, because HDR provides complete control over the entire dynamic range of the image. The important thing is to get familiar with what HDR software can do and learn how to expose images so you get all the highlights and all the shadows. Once you get those two things nailed down, you're on your way.
