Hi Nick,

Using PaintShop Pro...it's a Corel product now...

Happy shooting!


I have a feeling Nick was asking what software you use for HDR processing, not what
you were using for photo editing.
To the best of my knowledge PaintShop Pro does not have actual HDR tools such as
those found in CS5. Stacking layers from a bracketed set does not necessarily produce
an HDR. You might get some lifting of detail from shadows, but not a full tonemapped
HDR processed image.

Nick is using Photomatix together with his editing SW. I use NIK HDR Efex Pro
together with CS5.

Are you using any specific software for HDR processing, or are you just stacking the
bracketed exposure layers?

Just checking in on the HDR discussion...
I think it all depends on the amount of the effect put into making the image.

Here's one from Oceana in 2009 on a rainy overcast day.

Hi Tom! Which software did you use and which settings?

I use Photomatix......although I wish I'd known about Topaz before I made my
purchase. It seems both are quite good but I would have like to have tried out Topaz
as well before making my decision.

Regards,

Nick
