[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 13173, member: 1573"] Hi, Doug! I'm a great fan of HDR and you'll be hooked as soon as you try it. If you have CS5, you can use their HDR Pro program. Taking the shots is kind of trial and error. Take at least 3 auto-bracketed shots . . . you want to be in either aperature priority or manual. Once you get your shots downloaded into lightroom (be sure you use a tripod when shooting), select the shots you want to merge. You should have at least 1 that is very underexposed, and 1 that is very overexposed. Go to the photo menu in on top in lightroom, and select "edit in", scroll down to "merge to HDR Pro in Photoshop". This will take a little bit of time. Once PS does its thing, a new screen will open with hdr controls, and that's when the fun begins! Just play with the sliders until you get the effect you want. Hopefully this will give you a start. Most of this is really trial and error and personal taste. Let us know if you need more help. Post some of your efforts and we can help you more. Good luck. Best Regards [/QUOTE]
