Selecting Images to Composite for an HDR Image

Video Transcript

"My name is Brandon Sarkis on behalf of Expert Village. Today, I'm going to give you an overview, and introduction to HDR, or High Dynamic Range Photography. And so, now that we've got the photos in our Photo software, I'm actually you can see that I've got them used in stacks, which is kind of neat, because this shows you a good reason to use stacks. So, I'm going to choose this set of five right here, and I will be doing an exposure of five today for my HDR. So I'm going to highlight that one, that one, that one, whoops, I'm un-highlighting them. All right, so these five I'm going to put into a collection real quick. I'm just going to name it project, and you'll see what happens. It's the only five photos I have to see on the screen at once, and the neat thing about that is then I can look at them one at a time in full size. This is a sunset a couple nights ago that I took. These are all taken at the seconds apart from each other. You can see it's 6:28:59, 6:29:00, 6:29:00, 6:29:01, and 6, oh actually, that's 6:28:59 again. So you can see these photos were taken just seconds apart, and you can see how different they all look, depending on your exposure settings. So, at the next step I'm going to go through, and highlight developing each individual one to get the most out of it before we composite them all together."
