Fourth of July Pictures

Finally got my pictures done from the fourth. It's always hard to shoot these images. It's completely dark so I am shooting at a high "ISO" rate. It's also hard for the camera to auto-focus when it can't see anything.

When the pictures do come out right the fireworks look really cool.

First HDR Picture Attempt

This is my first HDR picture attempt. HDR, or High Dynamic Range is a slightly different way to take a picture. Basically you take 3-7 pictures at different exposures and use Photoshop to merge the images together. Because of the multiple exposures, you have a lot more detail in the picture making for more realism. You can then take and tweak the picture in different ways even creating a "hyper-realism" level.

You don't take a volume of these suckers! Besides having to take 3-7 pictures with a tripod, it takes at least twenty minutes to process the final image.
