First of all, I do really appreciate the fact that you returned a link to the source. Many people don’t, which is extremely irritating. However, there are a few misrepresentations that I would like to clear up:

First of all, a couple of my images are displaying heavily distorted (as though the display dimensions are off). Namely, the Elephant Hall image and the Curt’s Truck image.

Second, your information about taking images for HDR processing is a bit inaccurate. Currently, there are no readily available commercial cameras that have “built-in” HDR capability. True HDR, by the current standard, is a process of combining multiple exposures of the same scene. None of the HDR processing actually happens in-camera. Some cameras have a feature called “Auto Exposure Bracketing” that makes it easier to capture multiple exposures, but regardless of what camera is used, the HDR image is created by taking those multiple exposures and processing them in software.

Next, it’s worth pointing out that the SCA event photo is not really an HDR image. No multiple exposures were used on that shot. Instead, a single image was run through a process of tone mapping (which is what is also used to process a multiple exposure HDR file).

If you would like to use any more of my images for future articles, and would like some insight about how they were created, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks and regards!
