If you’re just finding my blog – You don’t want to miss the entire HDR Workflow series that is right here on Nuwomb Creative. Check out the launch posting that links to all the steps in the tutorial.  I couldn’t make this list without linking back to the start of my own series.

Other HDR Tutorials all over the Internet

Now this is the meat of this Bonus part to the Workflow.  It’s important that we never stop learning!  These are some awesome and intense tutorials that I have come across around the interweb.  They are pretty detailed and if you’re interested in improving or learning HDR photography, you must check out some, most, or all of these!  They provide different perspectives on processing and little tips that I couldn’t mention or forgot or simply don’t do.  I love learning how other people work and they all so that this isn’t just about a program doing all the work.  It does show you that we’re all capable of doing this kind of work; however, excelling is due to your passion for it.  I’ll give a brief commentary about the site.

Stuck in Customs – HDR Tutorial

This is a really detailed tutorial by Trey Ratcliff.  Stumbling upon his blog a few years ago was eye opening.  I wanted to create these types of images because I felt I was seeing things in photography the way I saw them in real life.  Everything was more vivid and nostalgic.  I think this is the best tutorial on the Internet.  Interesting thing was that I didn’t understand “Masking” when I first read it.  I would try and try with no luck in understanding.  One day it suddenly came to me.   What a new world it was when that opened up in my understanding.  Don’t miss this How-To in HDR. He is one of the most open people on the net today about how he creates his images.  I have the most respect for this guy and I can’t wait to shoot with him on a trip one day.

The Windy Pixel – HDR Tutorial

In the tutorial, the windy pixel uses an image that is from very early morning as night becomes morning.  It’s important to see how he manipulates it with HDR to get a much more dramatic feel that inspires me to get out of bed these days.  It won’t take long to read so brush up on this perspective of HDR photography.

I loved this one because of the tutorial is showing you how to work with HDR in a realistic approach.  While you might only like this type of HDR processing, or you think you might need to tone down your editing – Check this out.  Image used is rather awesome itself.   I love learning little bits of information for different tutorials.

This is seriously awesome.  It is pretty advanced for sure because you’re fixing that ghosting that occurs when people are in the image and moving.  Also, you may get movement in your photos due to vehicles on the roads.  This kind of tutorial can clean it up and make it a bit more interesting. You can get the HDR feel but a more realistic look to people.  I am a huge fan of that because I am not into tonemapped people.
