              Best Technique for Shooting Interiors: HDR or Flash?

              Have you ever tried to shoot an interior photograph and have it look like the shots in magazines or high end property brochures? If so then you probably know there are two routes to go: HDR or Flash. Photographer Dom Bower recently made a video showing the differences in both techniques and how you can combine them both to create a sort of hybrid image. Keep in mind that Dom is only using one single speedlight directly above the camera. Many of the amazing images you see for high end hotels and expensive properties often have dozens of light sources accenting very specific elements in the image. What techniques have you guys used in your interior photos? If you have examples, feel free to post your images in the comments below and check out Dom’s final photos in the full post.

                Dom, I think your video has a wealth of information, thank you and keep up the good work. I appreciate all the you have taught me and others.

                OK, I admit I’m dense. I just cannot follow exactly what you are doing. I’ve tried following your instructions as I perceived them and I’m just
                not getting the same results. I’m using a D700 if that makes any
                difference. Do you have a list of step by step instructions as to exactly what you are doing?
