Edge Effects

Night Light Shot

In this assignment we were told to go shoot at night. I used a tripod or something to sit it on for all of these shots. I really like trying to get the starburst light effect in my light shots.

Our class had a day long photo excursion to an old Ghost town in Bannack, Montana an old gold rush town. We took photos all day regardless of the poor weather conditions. We focused on getting shots with slow shutter, shallow depth of field, portrait, and HDR.

HDR

In this process called HDR (High Dynamic Range) I took three different shots using a tripod on the bracketing setting. I took these shots at three different exposures (+1, 0,-1). I was not yet able to figure this out on my Nikon so I used my Sony DSC-H50. Then I took these three photos and combined them into one in a program called Dynamic Photo HDR and did some more minor adjustments (ultra contrast was one of the adjustments).
