HDR is amazing!

If you’re just starting out with photography, you should start learning this great technique… HDR-High Dynamic Range imaging. Well, it’s a bit advance for beginners but a huge step in imaging if you’re able to master it. So far, only a few are able to do this technique correctly. The purpose of HDR is to “accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows”. Originally, HDR imaging was developed in the 1930s by Charles Wyckoff, to capture intense images like the nuclear explosion. Although it was recognized for decades, not until 1997, that the technique was presented to the public by a researcher name Paul Debevec. Recently, HDR have gained its popularity with the help of newer software and cheaper digital SLR cameras. Here are some of the best HDR examples we've collected.
