Review:

"...one of the best books available on the subject, and I intend to keep it in the small library of books next to my computer to which I regularly refer." -- Photofocus.com, Nov 8, 2009

High Dynamic Range (HDR) is a technique that has seen huge popularity over the past 12 months. To get it right, there are basic photographic principles that need to be adhered to.
Combine these with some image-editing know-how, and you'll end up with dramatic, moody images that are rich in detail, colour and tone. That's exactly what this book is all about.
This book sets out to guide you through the entire workflow process, covering all three major software options: photoshop, Photomatix Pro and FDR Tools. It serves as a fantastic introduction to the subject, providing plenty of inspirational picture pages.

It kicks off with an explanation of the subject, followed by a detailed chapter on using your camera to achieve top quality start photos. Once you have these in the bag, the book shows you how to create various HDR styles.

Whether you prefer the extreme hyper-real HDR style or
something a little subtler, this book has it covered. The author pairs insightful advice and screengrabs, offering up deliciously rich images that leave you wanting to try it for yourself. This is a fantastic read and it will help
you explore HDR to the full. --Photoshop Creative Magazine, Issue 57
