Here's my 1st too. Been trying to do it on CS2 with 3 raw pics and merging them but keeps giving me an error message saying there not dynamic enough?
Will have to play around with this though, with some better pics.

Yeh, single RAW HDRs seem to come out like very well exposed images.

Multiple shots using different exposures come out looking unreal.

I did do that one photomatix but with one raw image (x3 adjusted). I agree its nothing compared to the others. Will need a bit of playing around and testing using different pics to get a better result.

i might try some night time HDRs as i haven't done it yet. but doing 3 seperate inages at 20 seconds exposure things in the picture are going to move like trees or anything so it's gonna be really bad ghosting.

ah well i'll give it a go, i use RAW and JPEG mode so alls good lol

Heres my 1st HDR altered as I didnt tone map the 1st :roll:

Also tried it on another two of my pics. When compared to the originals at normal exposure it does make quite a difference.
