Explore the fantastic function in your smartphone and camera

I fell in love with HDR (High-Dynamic-Range) photos the first time I saw them. They look surreal just like paintings, blurring the differences between the reality and the illusion.
High-dynamic-range photography is the art of creating one image by combining multiple exposures. Traditionally, HDR images have been created by taking three photos of the same scene at different exposures -- regular, underexposed and overexposed -- and then combining them using a digital editing program.

Now Free HDR applications are available for smartphones, automating the process for amateur photographers. Also, for guys owning the Sony NEX 3 or NEX 5, you can also shoot HDR pictures with HDR mode.

So why not explore the fantastic function in your camera or smartphone right now?
