For the High Dynamic Range edit, I took three photos at -2.0, 0.0, and +2.0. After opening them in the HDR program, I aligned them on top of one another. For the tone mapping, I changed the method to ultra-contrast (my favorite) and increased the amount of vivid colors. I also added a soft vignette to darken the edges. I really liked the way this photo turned out!
1. -2.0: Olympus E-300, f/11.0, 1/1250, Bannack, Montana, 1:15 p.m., 3/3/10
2. 0.0: Olympus E-300, f/11.0, 1/320, Bannack, Montana, 1:15 p.m., 3/3/10
3. +2.0: Olympus E-300, f/8.0, 1/160, Bannack, Montana, 1:15 p.m., 3/3/10
For the High Dynamic Range single photo edit, I really wanted to bring out the blue in the otherwise dull boards. Once again, I used the ultra-contrast method and increased the amount of vivid colors.
1. blue boards: Olympus E-300, f/5.6, 1/250, DuBois, Idaho, 9:55 a.m., 3/3/10
