Bracketing Exposures, experiment.

Bracketing Exposures, experiment with the look.

First thing I do before a shoot starts is take multiple exposures of the scene to work out what is a maybe and what is a no go.


Experimenting is something that helps me grow, Jay Maisel a NY photographer routinely shoots his first frame on, one frame over and one frame under. He does this not to HDR the image, more to decide which file is the best as a starting point. What file is going to work best for him.

For photographers starting out  with a camera that has live view, use the function, if it looks good on the back of the screen and you trust that preview to be faithful, keep it, press the shutter release.

Make use of all the tools available in camera, to increase you chances of making good frames.
