My amatuer photoshoot with over the top editing (picture heavy)
#8
It was very cloudy out so all the pictures that had part of the sky in it I spiced up a bit but then I got carried away
Even the normal looking sky photo had some adjustments in it. Any tips would definitely be appreciated on settings and composure. I didn't bring my tripod a long so the pictures weren't perfectly aligned.

No really, STAY. AWAY. FROM. HDR.
Now that you've got that down, STAY! AWAY! FROM! HDR!
Beyond that, some good composition and great concepts. The HDR really kills it though.

yeah. a few year ago, a few editing guys decided it was cool to take a cloudy pic and make it look stormy. wasnt a bad idea at first. but then people started over doing it. it basicly makes shades look nicer. (darks darker, lights highlighted, etc) but when its over done, it looks extra cartoony and not nice. people dont use it much anymore because legit editors crapped on them with just normal editing. id much rather just manually adjust colors and use light room. it makes the pics look amazing without any cartoonish looks.

It stands for High Dynamic Range.
It's basically taking different exposures of the same picture 3 times and combining them together. So there would be an underexposed photo (-0.7) a normal exposure photo (0.0) and overexposed photo (+0.7) combined together.
I can't really explain it that well but that's how you do it.
