A Beginner's Guide to HDR Photography | Nature TTLHDR photography is a technique where multiple bracketed images are blended together to create a single beautifully exposed photo. It involves capturing several photos with different exposures and then combining them using software like Lightroom or Photoshop to create a highly detailed image with a wider dynamic range.

a Wide-angle lens is a 10mm to 35mm.

In my early days as a photographer, I never used wide-angle lenses. I started my career as a sports photographer and rarely used anything shorter than 70-200mm (and I often went for 400mm f/2.8 lenses or 600mm f/4 lenses).

But then, as I began shooting landscapes, I discovered the magic of wide angles.

Wide angles give an expansive view, and when used correctly, they can wrap you in the scene. My favorite lenses for landscape work tend to be a 14mm f/2.8, a 16-35mm f/2.8, and a 24mm f/1.4.

a Standard lens is a 35mm to 85mm.Standard zoom lenses are great walkaround lenses. They are versatile, allowing you to do wide-angle landscape shooting, before zooming in to the telephoto end to take a great portrait.

a Telephoto lens is a85mm to 300mm.

Telephoto lenses get you close to a subject without actually approaching them. Working with a telephoto lens is like shooting through binoculars because they magnify distant subjects.

Now, more often than not, when I speak to new photographers looking to purchase their next lens, they want something on the telephoto end. The most popular telephotos seem to be various flavors of 70-300mm or 70-200mm.
