\nChris Alvanas’<\/a> image (above) is an excellent example of heavy HDR.
\nLast week I taught my most advanced Fine Art Digital Printing Advanced <\/a>workshop ever. We talked not only about how to use HDR tools but also the visual effects they produce. HDR processing creates several identifiable artifacts. Going to extremes will help you identify the possibilities and the artifacts more clearly. After that, you can better decide just how far you want to go. Clearly identifying these artifacts can help you control them and craft your own HDR style.
\n1\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Full detail in shadows and highlights<\/strong>
\nThis is the reason special software was invented.
\nPushed far blacks and whites can get gray.
\n2\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Accentuation of contour<\/strong>
\nImages look sharper and clearer. It’s Clarity on steroids.
\nPushed far this leads localized vignetting.
\n3\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Accentuation of texture<\/strong>
\nTalk about detail.
\nPushed far it gives objects a stained (“grunge”) appearance and boosts noise.
\n4\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Distortion of relative saturation relationships<\/strong>
\nSometimes it’s beautiful, sometimes it’s unnatural, sometimes it’s beautifully unnatural.
\nA little post-production work will help you get the balance that’s best for you.
