HDR Instructional

Dave Rhuberg (Catawba Valley Camera Club Member) enlightened us Wednesday night on High Definition Range Imaging.   HDR is new to some of us in the club but the session was very informative and makes us want to do more research and use HDR in our photography.

Rick Bell is not in the photo as his butt was too sore from a slip on a slippery rock slope.  Donny Teague was to my left as I shot. (Would have needed a fish’s eye). Wink Gaines’ head is actually in the photo to Ed Lane’s left.  The butt belongs to Tom Devlin and Dennis Hacker, our fearless leader, is to the right.  I think all are therefore accounted for except Tom brought his wife Helen along.  I believe she wrote poetry but cannot verify such matters. – Steven Gold
