Over 800,000 hits for HDR of flickr.This shit is becoming a problem.
For example.....
- yeah, that looks like a painting you can get at your local fair. but wrapped in plasticMeeklo
- LOL hummer and krispy kreme.monNom
- not HDRmonospaced
- I bet this would make for a big Redneck-hit when printed to canvas. Goes great a dreamcatcher, too....Sandder

oh man, this is terrible!
I guess I shouldn't say that, because art is subjective.
But I don't find this trend (over processing images) to be something attractive, in fact I think sometimes there is actually a really nice photo behind the cheap filtering.Some (really subtile) examples look good though.
- Don't worry man, it's not that subjective if it's obviously really bad.Tungsten

HDR is my huge pet peeve right now. Before that it was rappers with "Lil" before thier name.

reference to this imageHow many photographs did you take. How many stops apart were they? What kind of camera did you use? Tripod?

I shot this in HDR. I just use it very lightly to capture all the detail. It can be a useful tool if you move past the extreme HDR look.

- great example.danthon
- was HDR necessary for this shot? could it have been achieved with better lighting and camera techniques?monospaced
- no, not necessary, but a good experiment to see what I could come up with using HDR.lumedia
- this looks greatMeeklo
- great and all but how does the shoe fit? Comfortable?mg33

"was HDR necessary for this shot? could it have been achieved with better lighting and camera techniques?"
that's the whole point of hdr, to avoid cumbersome lighting setups. just shoot, process, done. or in situations where you don't have any control over light.
the human eye can adjust better to such situations than your camera's photo sensor. so, you shoot a few shots and compensate for the over/under exposed areas in the scene. merge to composite and map the tones.
not much different from the curves tool, but far more powerful.
- Oh, I understand. I felt that HDR was more effective for a truly High Dynamic Range image, not a product shot.monospaced

HDR and Selective colouring are the new lens flare.

Incorrect.You are thinking of HDR as this:
And that is not HDR, that is "Photoshop Over Processing" otherwise known as "POP".
POP is (like you mentioned before) the new lens flare.

That's what I like to hear.monospaced - you should be bracket through shutter speed - not fstop for hdrsikma
- Thanks for the tip sikma. I'm hopefully going to be able to shoot a massive empty church soon I'll try it. :)rounce
- fstop will change the the focus and shape of the image - which may cause your images not line upsikma
- I found the DOF changes did show up in the shadows with rings of blur in some parts of the frame.rounce
- NICE

Subtle usage

I don't think this shot of mine turned out too cheesy and hrd like:
- is it HDR?
if it is, it's nicemonospaced - in fact, this is a really great example of how it can really make an image greatmonospaced
- is it HDR?
