These pictures are from the Boston Globe’s famous “The Big Picture” and are arial shots of different parts of the world. Some of these shots are truly amazing so I thought I would share.

I love photography and have often been called “The Paparazzi” by my own brother-in-law. I am always looking into new techniques and love viewing the “best of” photos online. I was recently turned on to HDR photography and have become fascinated with what I have seen. Now I know this technology has been around for quite some time so bear with me as I show you my first attempt at HDR photography.
What is HDR photography?
In image processing, computer graphics, and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDRI or just HDR) is a set of techniques that allows a greater dynamic range of luminances between light and dark areas of a scene than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDRI is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows.
