"Exploring High Dynamic Range Photography "

Check out Rick's Web site here

 

HDR (High Dynamic Range) is a revolutionary technique that transforms traditional photographs into eye popping images, revealing a wide range of exposures and tones that bring a scene to life.

Overcoming the challenge of photographing details in extreme highlights and shadows is possible through HDR processes such as tone mapping and bracketing exposures.

Come discover the magic of HDR by joining the legendary Rick Sammon, author of HDR Digital Photography Secrets, as he shares his favorite HDR images, and his personal techniques for creating them. Rick will provide a basic overview of HDR imaging, followed by a demonstration of programs and plug-ins, including Photomatix and Topaz Adjust. If you're new to HDR, or would like to hone your existing skills, then this is the perfect inspirational and instructional seminar for you.

After the seminar, Rick will be autographing copies of his best-selling HDR book
