High Dynamic Range (HDR) Photos

A few photos utilizing a process called  High Dynamic Range.  This involves taking multiple exposure photos using a tripod.  These multiple photos are then processed together to achieve a final photo that utilizes portions of each exposure level to provide more dynamic range (ability to see more detail in shadows and less highlights in bright areas).  This is an attempt to capture how your eyes instantly adjust to see better in darker and lighter areas.  A normal photo has to compromise between better exposure in lighter and darker areas unless you capture the multiple exposures.  The resulting HDR Photo can be adjusted to render something that may look more artistic than real life, as always, it is a compromise between the limitations of equipment and software as compared to the amazing ability of the eyes and brain to adjust.
