Wow!  That is all that I can about Deke McClelland.  He is quite amazing!  He has accomplished so much including:  he is an electronic publishing pioneer and a popular lecturer on Adobe Photoshop and the larger realm of computer graphics and design.  He hosted Adobe’s official Video Workshop, did hundreds of hours of tutorial-style video training, amongst several other things.

An HDR image packs more pixels than normal into a picture creating billions of color variations and razor-sharp detail.   Creating compelling HDR portrait images can be tricky, whether through multiple exposures and tone-mapping or fake HDR methods in Photoshop.  I am definitely very interested in Photoshop and I am now realizing how many things that you can actually do.  I cannot wait to experiment with several different techniques in my future.
