HDR Photography Review

1. HDR or High Dynamic Range
2. An HDR photo allows for a wider and deeper range of color which makes an image appear much closer to what the human eye sees
3. Bracketing is when sever shots of the same subject are taken using different exposures
4. Photoshop
5. cropping too much of a layer

Family portraits

1. I will photograph my own family
2. I will shoot outside of my house, most likely
3. Outdoor lighting
4. I will need a tripod
5&6.  I will need to set up the camera on the appropriate mode and shutter speed/ aperture etc.
7.
I really like this family photo because its unique, the way the family is NOT posed makes this picture an eye catcher and interesting. I also like the lighting and the way it is black and white.
