Sabbatical

Tue Apr 21, 2009, 6:58 PM
I've been gone from DA for a while. I'm back...

For a few different reasons, I didn't find what I was looking for in taking a DA sabbatical, which was inspiration to do photography WITHOUT spending like five hours every day on DA.

I'm not going to spend that long again, but I will be posting stuff again. Hello again everyone. :D

They say they have not heard form you but i was reading your journal and if you get this, this is what a professional photographer told me when I asked about the same question you are asking.....

"There are two things going on in his images. First he's using a lot of Photoshop Dodging and Burning. Second he is using a technique called HDR which stands for High Dynamic Range. Photoshop can do a little of it but there is an application that most photographers use call PhotomatixPro. These reason you need an application is because you get HDR images by taking 3-8 different exposures from light to dark and then combine them."


You can see some amazing examples here:
