HDR Photography - seeing the normal uniquely

February 17th

I have always had a love for photography. It’s one of the reasons I attended the New England School of Photography many years ago and ultimately graduated with honors in Photojournalism. One of the things I enjoyed was when the class was given the same assignment and yet we would all come back with completely different, special and spectacular images. It was because we all see things differently.

Like good photographers, good web designers see things differently as well. It helps them to adopt and utilize unique styles and techniques.

One of the photo styles that I am fascinated by is HDR photography. HDR photography or High Dynamic Range photography has been around for some time but you may not be familiar with it.

Here is a description from Wikipedia.

Here is the photoblog of Trey Ratcliff - Stuck in Customs for some awesome HDR photos. Trey’s work is an amazing example of how to look at the normal uniquely. Things we have all seen many times before become spectacular because of his interpretation using HDR photography.

I guess this post is a kind of follow up to my last one about Seeing Double Online where I talked about websites that look alike.

Your mission if you choose to accept it… this week find five things that are normal and challenge yourself to look at them uniquely.
