Photographers record a greater range of tonal detail than a camera could capture in a single photo through HDR (high dynamic range) images because sometimes cameras, by their basic-machine-nature, are very good at capturing images, lines, shadows, shapes but they are not good at capturing a scene the way the mind remembers and maps it.

Usually it’s hard to capture all parts of the scene in the proper exposure but with Adobe Photoshop, you can blend the images together if you take a series of photos of exactly the same scene while altering the exposure between each shot.

You can only apply HDR when the scene’s brightness distribution is hard to blend by a graduated neutral density filter and this is specifically apparent in modern compact cameras with more than eight megapixels. You can also make the most of your intense range under tricky lighting while still balancing this trade-off with contrast.
