I was just about to take a bite off my chinese dumpling this evening, when I chanced upon this photo I shot with my gf at Niagara Falls, Canada last year.

Let say, if you only have 1 photo and you wanted very badly to make this photo looks “HDRed”, you can actually do that in Photoshop.

Do you find that whenever you has the time to take your camera out to shoot some photos and yet the weather is so gloomy that you feel like going back to your bed and rot away? Here is a little trick to make dull and grey sky become bright blue sky in Photoshop!

I can remember the days when I just got my first digital camera and was so disappointed when most of the shots turned out underexposed! During that time, I do not have much knowledge of photo correction technique in photoshop and I just leave the photos alone and wasted and finally deleted.. If I knew there is such an easy method to correct exposure problems in Photoshop, I would have done all I could to save those photos.
