Just what is HDR photography all about? Join photographer Matt Suess in an Arizona ghost town, and learn how he creates artistic, high-contrast scenes that jump off the screen.

HDR stands for high dynamic range, a photography technique that mimics what the eye can see, merging multiple bracketed exposures into one vibrant image. Perfect for scenic landscapes, building interiors, and - in this case - vintage Americana, HDR allows you to bring out surreal detail in your highlights and shadows.

In this 30-minute class, Matt walks through:

The basics of HDR and its uses
How to set up your camera and shoot HDR photos
Editing tips and presets

So pack your DSLR, your sense of adventure, and a copy of Macphun's Aurora HDR, and tag along with Matt Suess on a breathtaking photo journey that will inspire you to see things in a different light.
