Now I'll show you something pretty

This photo has a very nice contrast. It would have been a good one to try making a High Dynamic Range (HDR) photo out of.

I don't know what that is. Do you need a special camera to do that?

You need a digital SLR camera and also special software to post process the images.

Many people don't realize that the human eye can see much more contrast than any commercially available camera.

An HDR photo is made up of three photos taken almost instantaneously, but with the camera automatically adjusting the exposure slightly for each photo.

With special software, the three photos are blended together and the end result (if done well) is a photo with extreme contrast.

Nice photo. It makes me want my table back.
