We were went to Cottesloe Beach that day. Think beach, think Norfolk Island pines, think Western Suburbs lifestyle - that’s Cottesloe. Just 15 minutes west of Perth, Western Australia, Cottesloe is internationally famous for its superb beach and terraced lawns overlooking the Indian Ocean. When you go to Perth, don’t forget to visit this Suburb Cottesloe. So beautiful beach, white sand, very blue the water.

This time, i tried HDR Technique. Those was the result when i used HDR Technique from Photomatix Pro. What is HDR stand for? High Dynamic Range thats what HDR stand for. As you know that maybe our picture lack of exposure or to much exposure, what we can do with our image is to combine 3 exposure of our picture to one HDR Image.

Previously the term is HDRI. High Dynamic Range imaging (HDRI) is a set of techniques that allows a greater dynamic range of exposures (the range of values between light and dark areas) than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDRI is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows.
“HDR” is now popularly used to refer to the process of tone mapping together with bracketed exposures of normal digital images, giving the end result a high, often exaggerated dynamic range.

I used Photomatix Pro Software this time to create my first HDR Image. Photomatix Pro is a stand-alone program that runs on Mac OS X and Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista.

So how it looks like the original picture?

High Exposure

Normal Exposure

Low Exposure
Then i just combine those 3 images into Photomatxi Pro. Thats is, just as simple as it is.
