An amateur photographer obsessed with HDR photography.

Intro

It`s been a year since I have involved my self in the world of photography. The today of 1 year ago I have mere idea about photography and probably never know what`s fun in it. But today, I could say my self are totally into it,just like a commitment of a sudden.I love photography.

Despite that most people said that photography are used to captured memory. But to me photography is very subjective,it helps to express what I feel & what I see.

I`ve owned a Sony Alpha-550 year ago from my lovely dad. I cant really describe the excitement when I realize I owned 1 dslr for my first camera in my life,it was joyful !!! Still remember I`ll bring it together wherever I go.(Just like a 6 years old girl who own their first Barbie doll^^) With the Sony,what I mostly do is point and shoot, forget about the post processing, because I can`t even get a good composition with any pictures i captured ! Even today, I still having heaps of trouble finding a good composition. I have to admit that I`ve improved dramatically since the first half year, thanks to my supportive friends who are willing to share their skills and flick mates. "Some are born with a natural eye for a photo and others have to work a little hard at it..." Obviously,I`m the `others`, and I am actually working very hard to improve.

HDR

Through time, I understand that 1 photographer have to be expertise in 1 or 2 subject to be distinctive.Landscape,portraiture,macro,still-life and whatever u can name. I`ve been introduce to a fairly recently famous "HDR photography", stands for High-Dynamic Range. What it does is it combine different exposures picture together(typically 1 exposure for the shadows, 1 for midtones, and 1 for highlights)>process through a hdr software>a few more post-processing through photoshop>done^^. I find that the whole process of capturing a hdr image is extremely fun and joyful, from taking pictures to post processing moment, 1 word "fantastic". Mainly there is 2 photographer that non stop inspiring me,motivated me and keep me going.The first 1 is Artie Ng, a Singaporian who migrated to Australia, his hdr works are just astonishing. The second is Trey Ratcliff, originated from Texas. His hdr works just so famous almost known by photographer around the world, with over 20+ millions of view on his flickr and own the largest travel blog in the world.

I always get idea from fellow flick mates,because I am really inexperience,hence I know this is the fastest way for me to improve. Months ago, I always come up with really really really ugly hdr photos, but I`m still glad for it coz i really think it was good >.<>
