Bricks & Clicks
The Rockford Register Star is more than a newspaper: the ink on print or the “bricks” in the News Tower. We’re a multimedia news and information company: the “clicks” on our Web site and the TV clips on WREX-13. This blog explains our fast-changing media environment and interacts with our readers to show how and why we do what we do.

Our readers have sent us some pretty incredible flood photos. Check out this one from Tim Speer of Roscoe.

Flood

Here’s how he did it. “Sending an image from over the weekend of a passing storm that I took as an HDR (high dynamic range) image,” Tim wrote in an e-mail. “It is basically a composite of several different images of the same subject shot at different exposures to achieve an image with a full range of tones. Hope you enjoy.”

Wow, Tim. I did enjoy. Thanks. Oh, and, and check out more of Tim’s work on his Web site. And see more reader shots here.

    A lot of HDR is really overdone and blown out. This is a nice example of how it can work well.
