#TUTORIAL EASYHDR SOFTWARE#

There are tons of different pieces of software available to accomplish this, but they’re not all created equal. With a bit of digital editing, it is possible to take multiple different exposures of the same shot and combine them into a high dynamic range (HDR) image.

When you expose properly for the landscape, the area around the Sun appears too bright and washed out. When you expose a photograph perfectly for the clouds, your landscape tends to appear too dark. Your eyes aren’t really capturing everything all at once, but the switchover between the bright areas and the dark areas happens so quickly that you don’t usually notice it.ĭigital cameras can’t really accomplish the same thing on their own. At the same time, your brain remembers what was happening in the darker areas of the scene in front of you and stitches it in, creating the illusion of being able to see a very wide range of contrast. When you look out at a beautiful sunset, your eyes adapt to limit the amount of light they receive.

But for all its capabilities, it still can’t quite compete with the abilities of the human eye for one important reason: our brain. The digital camera is an incredible and complex device, allowing us to capture everything from vast landscapes to incredibly personal moments.
