This is a test jump into HDR photography. Hopefully it develops as I learn more, but it was so interesting I just took a leap at it.

Faux HDR

First off, I cheated at this. I took 1 picture (which wasn't really a great picture to begin with) and manually manipulated the colors to over & under expose. For the first test I wanted to see the merge results.

Underexposed
Original
Overexposed


The results were rich in color. I shifted between 2 exposure spaces and the latter of the two was the richest.

Combined - 2 Spaces
Combined - 4 Spaces


Having seen the combined difference, I'll work on learning on the Powershot S3 how to manipulate the over/under exposure and see what a true light picture results with.
