Here is a blurb on HDRI:

Dynamic Range is basically the ratio of the darkest point of shadow to the brightest point of highlight in a photo.

Blowout and Burnout: (pardon if this is stuff you already know)

Blowout happens when too much light hits the digital sensor, or the film emulsion, causing all of the pixels to go white. This can be from ISO setting, Flash, shooting into the sun, etc. If you take a picture of someone in a white shirt, there should still be a fair amount of pixel detail present in the white shirt.

Burnout is the opposite, it is when there was so little light that the area of the photo is completely black, with no other pixel detail.

Typically, we sacrifice elements in a photo when we press the shutter. For example, there is a powerful cloudscape and some cliffs. If we expose for the clouds, the cliffs become dark and may even loose detail to burnout. If we set the camera's exposure to capture detail in the cliffs, the brighter sky is blown out and detail is lost.

The downside of blowout and burnout is that you loose details in the shadows and highlights. Since there is no pixel information in these area, it cannot be fixed either in the darkroom, or digitally, except by creating pixels that were never there.

One solution for increasing the Dynamic Range of a shot, without loosing details in the highlights and shadows, is to shot the scene in HDRI (High Dynamic Range Imaging).

This is done by taking more than one photograph, and bracket the photos. Shoot normal exposure, then under-expose a shot to capture highlights, and then over-expose a shot to capture shadow detail. Finally, merge these photos in Photoshop CS2, CS3, or use the program "Photomatix" to produce a single image with a larger range of tones that can now show all the details in the shadows and highlights.

Quite a lot of the new digital cameras make taking HDR photos easy. You set how many shots you want, how much f-stop difference you want between frames, and it will take all three (or more) of the shots in rapid succession. You will typically find this feature under your cameras "Auto Bracketing".

HDRI - HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE IMAGING

HDRI was originally developed for Architectural modeling, because it has a 3D effect.

Here are some examples of how HDRI can give a 3D effect:

Much of the HDR photos you see on DA are HDR with tone mapping and layer effects, to make them very dramatic.

However, many photographers use it just enough to make their photos look better, without applying tone mapping and special effects.

____________________________________


Adjusting Dynamic Range in Photoshop, using "Contrast" is far from deal. Contrast is a sneak thief that steals away the detail in the highlights or shadows, and sometimes both. Human eyes can adapt to very different brightness levels, while most cameras and computer monitors can capture and reproduce only a fixed dynamic range.

The solution is to take more than one photograph and bracket the photos. Shoot normal exposure, then under-expose a shot to capture highlights and over-expose a shot to capture shadow detail. Finally, merge these photos in Photoshop CS2, CS3, or use the program "Photomatix" to produce a single image with a larger range of tones that can now show all the details in the shadows and highlights.

Quite a lot of the new digital cameras make taking HDR photos easy. You set how many shots you want, how much f-stop difference you want between frames, and it will take all three (or more) of the shots in rapid succession.

High dynamic range (HDR) images open up a world of possibilities because they can represent the entire dynamic range of the visible world. HDR imaging captures the full range of tones in a scene, reproducing human perception down to the finest detail without lens flare, burnout, or underexposure. HDRI (High Dynamic Range Imaging) was originally used in 3D and is now in full force in photography. Basically it's the process of taking multiple exposures and merging them together into a single image.

HDRI PORTRAITS

HDRI can give you good dynamic range without blowout or burnout, while at the same time giving you good detail in shadows and highlights.

Don't forget that tone mapping does need to be done, and you control exposure differences in your # or more exposures, and the amount of HDRI effect can be controlled. HDRI can be used to give your portraits.
