High Dynamic Range

Getting an HDI photography, you need to take series of photos with different stops and edit it to combine while leaving the "middle portion of the contrast range relatively unaffected". In some cameras there is a feature called auto exposure bracketing, AEB, that automatically takes a serious of picture with different stops. 
In our case, the camera that we're using (Canon Rebel T3/EOS 1100DD SLR) has a feature of +/-2 stops in 1/3- or 1/2-stop increments that can be used to make an HDI photography. 
Locations or environments around or in Akins for a good HDI picture would be the courtyard, the facade, the track, the hallway, anywhere a light exposure is present on a good view of Akins' architecture or beautiful view.

 
 I like this picture because of the glow effect made by AEB feature and/or using a tone mapping program. The balance is stunning and there is so much emotion into it. The simplicity technique is outlined by a glowing effect of light exposure around the tower itself, outlining a fantasy view. The lines shown backs up the balance, adding more emotions to the tall, strong, and beautiful of Eiffel Tower making this picture dreamlike.
