"The Ridges" in Door County, Wisconsin
May 2008 I shot a series of exposures manually at -2, -1, 0, and +1 exposures. This was before I even thought about looking at my camera manual for AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing) I placed the images into Photomatix Pro with the attempt of taking this wide range of light and creating a useable image. When I exposed for the sky and structure the trees were under exposed with no shadow detail. Then I exposed for the trees and the sky was blown out. See alsoone of the original images that was exposed as a single image with the best automatic matrix metering. HDR does work even with limited planning and foresight.
