HDR
HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. HDR is two or more images taken in exactly the same place but with different apperatures and exposures. Usually you will have one image over exposed one image under exposed and a median image between the other two's exposures.
•Take Three Images Using A Tripod. Each Image should have a different exposure One over exposed, one under and the other in the middle of the two
•Then go into photoshop and do file>Automate>Merge To HDR PRO
•Select Your Images And Press Ok
•You can then mess around with the exposure etc in the window it will open. There are also pre sets that you can use to get the HDR image how you want it. When you are done Press Okay.
•That’s it.

My Final HDR Test Image
How This Links To My Project
I will most likely take super long exposure images at a beach or a cliff and take images up there. HDR will make the images I take seem very surreal as the range of colours will be much larger than in the normal image. Long exposure images of the sea look very surreal anyway as it adds a mist of the sea and the sky moving. This is how I will show movement in my next shoot.
