HDR Processing Styles and Techniques
 Alongside
photos by JoJo Marion, Sam Zaydel writes: "First and foremost,
let's talk about what HDR images are. Dynamic Range simply put,
is a measure of how many levels of light an image capture
device, such as your digital camera, or film can capture. Think
about shooting a bright sunrise. Why is it that when the sun is
exposed properly, the rest of the image appears dark and
underexposed? Simple, because the camera used to capture the
image has less Dynamic Range than the scene being captured."

Twilight and Night Photography Tips
 Peter
Phun writes, "Twilight is a magical time. Just because the Sun
is down, doesn't mean you should put away your camera. When the
Sun sets, a different looking world exists for the
photographers. Colors do not appear the way they do in daylight.
Instead, colors display based on your camera's white balance
setting and how that setting matches the various light sources
in your scene. Backgrounds become less distracting. Street
lights and lit building interiors give you outlines and shapes
of various colors."
