Thanks for making our Interactive HDR Before and After so popular!

To celebrate, here is the first ever “Best Of” post that showcases some of the most interesting and dramatic HDR before and after comparisons.

If these are not some of your favorites, please let me know. Remember to check out the original posts by following the links below. You can find cool info about each shot as well as a technical breakdown (Technical Mumbo Jumbo) about the specific software and techniques used in the post processing.

    Excellent! I love the editing. How did you make these sliders? Please direct me to a tutorial if possible.

    Thank you…

      Thanks Thamer! — I have a web buddy that helps me out with all the technical mumbo jumbo, so I don’t really know. Mostly, I just break the web.

    I have never been a big fan of HDR since they usually look so unreal. The work you show here is brilliant because one cant make the post processing. I am your new follower.

    Now, this is the way HDR is supposed to be done. I wish more people could see this. Granted, if these were my images I would take down the color saturation a little, but that would be MY aesthetic choice.

      Hey Mike, thanks for the great compliment! — I’ve always been a huge fan of bold & vivid colors. I like to think it’s because I ‘actually’ see things that way. =) — Maybe someone will invent ‘histogram’ sun glasses that can give me a visual luminance reading wherever I go. Then I can compare real life to my HDR Post Processing. (and hey, while the inventors are working on that, maybe they can invent a ‘real life’ undo button too. That would be sweet.)
