Product Description:
It’s the latest and hottest technique, made possible only through digital. High Dynamic Range photography is the process of taking several pictures of a scene at various exposures, then merging them into one file. So the entire photo can look crisp and detailed, from highlights to midtones to shadows—and photographers needn’t sacrifice any part of their image. And the best way to master this exciting technology is with this thorough, easy-to-follow, and visually spectacular guide. No other title does justice to these cutting-edge techniques, which actually take the viewer into worlds far beyond normal photography—sometimes even beyond normal human perception. Ferrell McCollough, a widely respected photographer, pushes the boundaries and inspires others to pursue their artistic vision, too. The amazing results simply can’t be achieved any other way.

Rating: - All the reviews are correct
I read all the reviews after I read McCollough's book. All the five-star reviews are right on target. I especially liked all the photos he included that show before and after comparisons. His analysis of the different software packages is very helpful. On the other hand, all the other HDR books got rave reviews, so it seems you can't make a mistake buying any of them.
One downside for some: McCollough does not litter his narrative with sophomoric,distacting,and irrelevant jokes like some ... Read More
Rating: - Very practical, very useful
I'm finding this book easy and pleasant to read and also very useful.My first HDR effort since getting the book is posted in my blog at [...]In particular, the book has pointed me towards post processing of HDR tone mapped images or even combining various tone mapped images to get the effects that I want.
Rating: - An entirely new dimension to photography
For a long time, I was quite oblivious to the possibilities of High Dynamic Range photography. It was just one of many new digital 'things' in the world of photography. But after seeing a series of HDR shots of French church interiours, I had to learn more about this fascinating technique.
Initially, I read a number of articles off of the web and studied discussions in different forums, but decided to get a book dedicated to the subject. I got this one, and I am very happy with it.
