To HDR or not… that is the question

Recently I’ve been playing around with HDR (or tonemapped, if you prefer) photos. They seem to be somewhat of a love/hate affair, with many people voicing strong opinions against them. The term “HDR” refers to high dynamic range; more specifically in digital photography, it usually refers to the process of bracketing and combining multiple exposures of the same image. By combining underexposed and overexposed images, you end up with a final product that shows all the detail in both shadow and highlight areas.

Update

I’ve been extremely lazy for the last month, and haven’t really updated either of my blogs. I also haven’t taken many photos (apart from the obligatory unwrapping of presents), so I decided to head into the city with Camille and my new Tokina 11-16mm wide angle lens to get some shots of the city skyline and new Kurilpa bridge. The bridge had crappy coloured lights that night for some reason, but I did manage to get a couple of interesting shots (below) and played around with them in Photomatix.
