20 HDR Examples: How It Should Be Done | Fotographee

I like that this image is nicely evened out and all the colors are even. The sunset is pretty, and I like how it evens out color of the water.

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. It makes pictures and videos look better by showing more details. It makes everything the same exposer and balances everything out.

File Formats

JPEG: Discards some image data which makes it fast to save but lowers the quality of the image.

HEIF: Advanced compression so files stay small with better quality.

TIFF: Saves images without losing any data and keeps high quality but with larger files.

RAW: Keeps all the image data from the camera which gives the best quality but takes up a lot of storage.

PNG: Compresses images without losing any quality but files are larger than JPEG.

GIF: Uses lossless compression, only supports 256 colors. Good for animation.

PDF: Format for documents that have images, text, and graphics. not meant for high quality image editing.

I want viewers to see that if your face is not in it than you cannot really get into any trouble, which is not true, but it is a fun saying people say to make a joke out of a situation.

Shoot like Aaron Siskind

I like his work because it is full of black and white portraits, and he makes sure the subject stands out. In this picture he makes sure the subject, which is a part of the ground, stands out more than the rest of it does. I think if the subject did not stand out as much, he probably edited it to contrast it a little bit more.
