More of my fiddling with HDR images.

Input: 5 raw images from Canon EOS 20D
Manual exposure F16, @ ev-2, ev-1, ev 0, ev+1, ev+3
32-bit HDR radience mode converted to 16-bit viewable using tone maping.
Converted and resized to 8-bit web format in PS CS2.

Image register achieved through use of Tripod and cable release.

I think this one looks the best of those you've posted.

Out of interest did you use Photoshop CS's HDR function, or was this a manual image merge?

Regards, John.

Photoshop CS2 merge to HDR works OK, but I think
photomerge from http://www.hdrsoft.com/ will work much better.

Getting a decent viewable image out of a PS CS2 HDR is not easy.

Peter.
