I have been experimenting with HDR photography since I first picked up a camera. So when I got a chance to shoot a kind of Real Estate type vibe set for a luxury RV magazine I was extremely excited to put what I have learned to use. The style of HDR and the richness of the photograph not having any shadows in a picture and everything just being so colorful I think is AMAZING! I am still to this day perfecting it there is tricks you do to get the perfect HDR picture.

First of all for creating a great HDR picture you need a program to create the HDR image. I use Photomatix Pro 5.0 and it works great. It has the option to merge as many pictures you wany. It reduces noise in the picture. Merging the pictures together you are going to get some noise just because of how many pixels the pictures have (you can also use NOISENINJA for noise reduction).
The thing that this does is merges three pictures together. A overexposed picture, underexposed picture, and a regular exposed picture of your object. I think HDR works best for landscapes and objects. You can either shoot the pictures manually or you may have bracketing in your camera settings, which actually gives you the option to take three pictures with exposure settings automatically. The thing you want to do and I think makes the picture look best is having some sort of lights in your picture. Even if you are shooting your home from inside or outside. Turn all the lights in the frame on (even if it is just a little light) it will pop in the picture and it will look great.
I hope this helped a little bit. Happy Shooting! :)
