SSI-HDR, as I call it, stands for - Single Shot Interpolated High Dynamic Range. There are many good reasons to want a single shot HDR method. One of the best is for shooting moving subjects. There are several undesired possibilities when shooting HDR that can be avoided by shooting single RAW frames and processing them individually as Interpolated HDR.

Quick Restart Lightroom

Whether people like to admit it or not, one thing that can help Lightroom performance when it slows down is a restart. It can also help when Lightroom does something unexpected or unusual. I'm not implying that Lightroom is an unstable mess, but when it's be actively running for days, through sleep cycles, it might need a refresh. Years ago in response to a cry for help from myself as a developer needing quick restarts for testing, Matt Dawson from The Photo Geek wrote a script that restarts...

So I guess I feel like these quotes help me get a little closer to the process of those particular...

The blonde lay on the sidewalk, her pale blue eye gazing blankly at the streetlight. A long golden curl of hair rested on her ear. She looked like a Botticelli angel who had lost her way and fallen out of the sky. That fall was quick, as Heaven was only as high as the roof of an East Village tenement that night. After the fall, like vultures smelling blood, a crowd of gawkers surrounded her. The shrill song of a police siren had awakened me. I threw on jeans, grabbed my camera and raced out in...

AF-S & AF-C: The Best of Both Nikon AF Worlds
Author: simon@simonstafford.co.uk on Pixiq
All Nikon autofocus (AF) SLR cameras (film and digital) have two principal AF modes: AF-S (single-servo) and AF-C (continuous-servo). At default settings the AF-S mode is intended for subjects that are stationary and where the camera-to-subject distance will not change in the time between when the AF system acquires focus and making the exposure. It works by locking the focus distance as soon as the camera has confirmed focus, and keeps the focus distance locked while the shutter release button...

Shutter speeds are pretty easy to understand - but why do apertures increase so weirdly? How come bigger numbers are smaller apertures? And how the hell are you meant to remember all of this? Don't worry - it's less of a mystery than you'd think. Here's how it works. Why does it matter? It's sort of important to know what 'half the aperture' is of any given aperture, because if you're shooting in Manual mode (you're not still shooting in automatic modes, are you?!), you can use something called...

Color management is a hot topic and perhaps the most complicated subject in all of digital photography. Everyone perceives and sees colors slightly differently. Even for a professional photographer to get the colors just right on a print made in their own office is no small feat with a custom profile and some fine-tuning of the image. Hence, it is no wonder that the switch to digital has been a little troublesome for many photographers and photo editors. In any digital workflow, color is the...

20 Books to Read Before You Shoot
Author: michael@michaelhfreeman.com on Pixiq
One of the great things about lists like this is that they’re personal. Well, they wouldn’t be much use to anyone if they weren’t, would they? So, being personal means a license to be opinionated, one of life’s little luxuries. It means being able to dismiss things you don’t like, whatever anyone else says about them, and including things that no-one ever heard of. So it goes here.... 1. CONCEIVED PHOTO BOOKS There aren’t as many of these around as you might think. Lots of photo...

When you use a fast lens wide open on your DSLR and you set the ISO to a desired speed, is your camera giving you what you ask for? Or, is the camera increasing the ISO without reporting what it's doing? Indeed – does it even make sense to use fast lenses on a CMOS sensor DSLR when you could get better quality, along with smaller size and lower weight with a slower lens to start with? The Luminous Landscape's Mark Dubovoy, using data kindly provided by DxO Labs, has been investigating this...

It involves constantly expanding your horizons, broadening your view, chasing your images one after the other and...

On tonight's menu: Placenta
Author: Holly Kretschmar on All Salon
Before getting pregnant, the idea of eating my placenta had never occurred to me. My hippie aunt had buried hers under a tree. That sounded nice. But a month before my son was born, my doula (a birth assistant I hired to coach me during labor) asked, "Do you know what you want to do with your placenta? I have a great...

A single dad spills his secrets
Author: Trey Ellis on All Salon
Of course all dads love their daughters, but a single dad's bond is more complicated than that. Ever since my wife moved out seven years ago, leaving me to raise a 3-½-year-old daughter and her 6-month-old brother Chet, I've been Ava's daddy and in some sense her mommy too. I reveled in the challenge of single parenting, smug in my holy martyrdom. I guess it runs in the family. My father raised me from the time I was 16, after my mother killed herself. Then, six years later, I...

Scripting with the Photoshop ScriptListener Plug-in
Author: Bob Johnson, Earthbound Light on Earthbound Light Photography Tips
At some point while learning the art of scripting in Photoshop you are bound to run up against something that seems to have no way to be done based on Adobe's documentation. Even at hundreds of pages, there are things you can do in Photoshop that don't seem doable in script if you limit yourself to what Adobe tells everyone about. Thankfully, there's the...

"Winter's Bone": American film of the year?
Author: Andrew O'Hehir on All Salon
This year's Sundance festival felt like a major coming-out party for female filmmakers -- remember, that all happened before Kathryn Bigelow's Oscar moment -- and none made a bigger splash than Debra Granik, whose eerie, pulse-pounding regional noir "Winter's Bone" won the festival's big prize. Never mind what hardware it's collected, or its director's gender; this movie's an absolute knockout. I know it's only June, but I'm damned if this isn't the breakthrough...

1 June, 2010 - The Best Noise Reduction Plug-In Yet!
Author: mreichmann@luminous-landscape.com on The Luminous Landscape - What's New
The world is a lot less noisy than it used to be. The photographic world, that is. In the days of film, ISO 400 was noisy in B&W, and in colour ISO 800 grain looked like golf balls. The early days of digital were not that much better. But in recent years we've grown accustomed to ISO 400 as being almost noise free, and some pro cameras now allow shooting at over ISO 100,000. But there are still a lot of times that noisy images need to be cleaned up, and a new king of the hill appears...
