Keeping It Real With HDR | OutdoorPhotographer.com

Keeping It Real With HDR | OutdoorPhotographer.com: "One of the most frequent questions I'm asked by students in my landscape photography workshops is, "How do I make my HDR photographs look more realistic?" To answer that question, we first need a clear understanding of the problem. Our eyes can see a range of light intensities, from brightest highlight to darkest shadow, of something like 10,000 to one. A print can only display a range of light intensities of about 50 to one. In that sense, it's impossible for a print to ever look completely "real." But it's possible to get close—close enough that a print evokes many of the same emotions in the viewer that the real scene evoked in the photographer."
