This Image taken from Munnar is Actualy a High Dynamic Range image Or HDR image.
Its been achieved by Exposure Bracketing. 5 exposures were used to create ths image.The intention is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes, ranging from direct sunlight to the deepest shadows.It was Shot in RAW Format
How to Shoot an HDR Image
| 1. | Mount your camera on a tripod |
| 2. | Set your camera to manual exposure mode. Select an appropriate aperture for your scene (e.g. f/8 or less if you need more depth of field) and the lowest ISO setting. |
| 3. | Measure the light in the brightest part of your scene (spot metering or in Av mode to point only the highlights) and note the exposure time. Do the same for the darkest shadows of your scene. |
| 4. | Determine the number and value of exposures necessary. For this, take as a basis the exposure time measured for the highlights. Multiply this number by 4 to find the next exposure with a stop spacing of 2 EV. Multiply by 4 successively for the next exposures till you pass the exposure measured for the shadows. (Note: For most daylight outdoor scenes excluding the sun, 3 exposures spaced by two EVs are often sufficient to properly cover the dynamic range). |
| 5. | You can make use of Auto-Exposure Bracketing if your camera supports it and if it allows a sufficient exposure increment and number of auto-bracketed frames to cover the dynamic range determined in step 4. Otherwise, you will have to vary the exposure times manually. These Images can be Merged using an HDR software or PS (File>Automate>>Merge to HDR) |
