HDR Photography – First Light
HDR Photography “First Light” – This is a shot that I took in Northern Canada! I was digging through some of my older RAW photos when I discovered this one! I’ve processed a few shots from this “kayak series” before, but I’ve never touched this one in particular. This was one of the first photos that I took that morning. Seeing these shots again really brought me back to that shore, waiting for the morning light to break through. Check out the high quality version here!
Post Processing “First Light” – I took three bracketed shots EV (-2, 0, +2). I used Lightroom on the middle exposure (EV, 0) to create a couple of different creative versions. Next I combined the original three EV (-2, 0, +2) RAW files into the New Aurora HDR and also Photomatix to create two different HDR versions. Finally, I blended all my different “versions” into Photoshop to get the final image!
