Learn a number of creative ways to produce HDR images using Photoshop with Chuck Behrman

In this tutorial CD, Chuck Behrman will teach you, through live, real-time demonstrations, many techniques for using Adobe Photoshop to create High Dynamic Range Images.

This CD will cover the concept and implementation of High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging using the built-in HDR processing in Photoshop CS2 and CS3. HDR offers the ability to maintain fine details in both the highlights and shadows of an image, producing a photograph that will have more visual impact and detail than ever before available - on the screen or in print!

The CD will address the types of images that lend themselves well to HDR as well as a few alternative approaches to achieve the HDR effect when the Photoshop processing simply does not work.

We will look at how to shoot HDR using the RAW format of digital capture as well as multiple ways of processing the images to maximize qulity and photographic impact.
