This was one of the first images of City Hall, in the Center City section of Philadelphia that I capture during a field trip. The instructor asked us to experiment, to try to capture the details inside the arch without over exposing the outside of the building. I immediately thought of HDR. Three images, one exposed for the outside, one for just inside and one for the far back.
The HDR brought out the texture of the brick.
The last of three images I captured during a photo walk around the Brooklyn Bridge Park with Trey Ratcliff as part of the #TreyUSA tour.
This is 3 exposure HDR (-2/0/+2) shot on my Nikon D5100 with a Tokina 12-24mm f/4 AT-X Pro DX-II (rented) and a 0.9 (3 stop) ND filter. The images were imported into Adobe Lightroom and then combined in Photomatix Pro using an export preset. I applied the natural preset in Photomatix Pro then imported the resultant image back into Adobe Lightroom for further processing.
