Outdoor Architectural HDR Photography
There are many different ways to take photos of architectural. These photos I tried a few different techniques and lens to find the best way to show these buildings. The first photo is taken with a wide angle lens, a fish-eye lens. I also had 2 speedlights to light the outdoor lights of the building. I took the photo at different exposures and then combined the photos together in Photoshop. Lastly I masked out the people holding the speedlights. For the Fire Department I used camera settings to bracket the building. Lastly I combined all 3 images in Photoshop. Mike Kelley is an awesome Architectural Photographer. I have watched a few of his videos of how he takes different photos. My settings varied but I kept a small aperture, ISO 100, ad my shutter speed varied between 1/125-1/200. Here is a great website on learning how to take architectural photography.
