HDRI (High Dynamic Range Imaging) was originally used in 3D and is now in full force in photography.

The human eye can see a larger range of tones than the camera can capture on the chip or film in a single photograph. Typically, we sacrifice elements in a photo when we press the shutter. For example, there is a powerful cloudscape and some cliffs.

If we expose for the clouds the cliffs become dark. If we set the camera’s exposure to capture detail in the cliffs, the brighter sky is blown out and detail is lost. The solution is to take more than one photograph and bracket the photos. But first we need to get our source images. Adobe recommends limiting the bracketing by one stop to reduce banding. Note: For a true HDR photo, you can’t use a single raw image and exposure it several times. Figure 1. Figure 2. Figure 3. Figure 4. Tags.

In fact, as I talked about in that previous article, HDR can be extremely useful in bringing out microtexture, enhancing the effect of light and shadow, and in creatively influencing the overall tone of the image.

All of these things lend themselves immediately and powerfully to black and white photographs, making HDR another viable tool in the monochrome photographer’s arsenal.

Another limitation is that it applies the effect to the entire image area, and sometimes that’s not the best thing to do for your photo. Here are two alternate ways of expanding your tonal range, methods you can use regardless if you own any HDR software or not.
