Images that boast almost unreal contrast and color ranges are often so-called HDR images. These High Dynamic Range images are created by blending together several shots of a single motive with varying exposure settings.
With HDR it is not only about improving the height and the depth of an image, like in other “normal” photo software. It is much more about compensating the physically conditioned limits that every camera possesses. Camera sensors can sadly only absorb a fraction of the brilliance or exposure differences that the human eye can. The eye can detect up to 100 000 contrasts, the camera sensors only around 500. That´s why most motifs in photographs never come across as radiant as you have in your own memory. This fact is indisputable and not a single camera makers around the world will contradict you on this.
With HDR projects you have the solution for this physical problem. Specially integrated algorithms will calculate from your original images a HDR image that will knock your socks off. Just try it out!
But be careful, anyone who has seen a HDR image usually finds normal photos quite boring!
