Dynamic Photo HDR

(Maurizio Gaiani) #1
Creating HDR 27

Also if you have multiple images, you have to remove the ghosts in all sets separately (on over-
exposed image the car could be in different position).

When you painting, you can press SHIFT to quickly turn into Eraser mode. Or you may press Erase
button.

Moving View while painting.
You can move the view by either the x, y sliders or by Right Clicking on the view and dragging.

You can also blur the currently painted mask with the Blur button.
The button Clear will clear the whole mask.

To finish the painting process you can press Finish Button:

You will return to the normal mode.
The final result HDR:

There is no sign of the ghosted image, nor any sign there was a car before!

Notes:
Anti-Ghosting of very large (central) objects actually defeat the purpose of HDR image, because it will
ultimately lower the dynamic range where the ghost was (especially if you have only few exposures). If
you have very large objects that moved, then the best advice is to re-shoot again.

3.7 Advanced Options


By clicking Advanced Option button we can change the parameters how HDR file will be merged from
the source files.
This is mostly for people who like to experiment or refine the way HDR is created.

Exposure weighting function
This sets the weight curve of new exposure range. Unless you know what to expect, changing this
option will not have big impact on the final image.

Smoother Output
This is good for most of the images. The result will better hide misaligned edges

Sharper Output
This process will produce sharper images, but any misaligned edges will be also more pronounced.
