HDR

20060924-apt-01I've long been a fan of a style of image processing called HDR, or High Dynamic Range, photography. There are a number of really great practitioners of it out there — my favorite, by far, being the work of David Nightingale at chromasia.com. I think his work is really pretty stunning, and if ever I find myself with leftover money, I'm going to buy one of his large-scale prints for my walls. That link is provided just in case someone who loves me to an obscene and self-damaging degree wants to blow their money on presents for me.

In any case, I've only recently started trying my hand at HDR imagery, and, as you can see, mine's nowhere near as subtle as his. But maybe in the future I'll learn. Still, I have to say I do like that photo. It's of the view from my fire escape in Brooklyn, looking back at Manhattan.

In any case, let me know what you think. I promise not to be offended.
