Introduction to CIDER

Welcome to CiderHouse!

The purpose of this blog is to explore every aspect of High Dynamic Range photography and, in particular, the use of HDR on the single image. [single-image HDR = SIHDR = Cider] We think that multiple image HDR has many technical advantages but if we restrict HDR tone-mapping to multiple images then many areas of photography will never benefit from these techniques. There will be, for example, no sports HDR, no NASCAR HDR, no candid HDR, etc. Single Image HDR has not yet been adequately explored and there is no convincing work-flow to deal with its unique problems. This site is devoted to examining those questions.
In the meantime the reader of this blog is also recommended to look at my Picasa Albums where topics on HDR are featured: http://picasaweb.google.com/edificia00
