Amateur’s Short Guide to HDR Landscape Photography

The new 2016 edition is a substantial revision and update to last year’s guide. If you enjoy shooting landscapes and want to improve your skills to better capture high-contrast scenes, then this guide is for you. This short guide packs a wealth of information, tips, examples and real-world advice to jump-start any beginner-to-intermediate level amateur’s ability to better photograph high-contrast landscape scenes. It provides a fast track to understanding the basics of High Dynamic Range (HDR) capture and processing, and even includes tips on using ND graduated filters and how they can be used in conjunction with HDR. All three major HDR processes are covered: HDR Efex Pro 2, Photomatix 5, and Adobe’s 32-bit editing and their new HDR Merge feature.
