Video 051 – High Dynamic Range (HDR) – One of the ways we can help deal with contrast. We merge to HDR 3 images that have 2 stops of exposure between each. The process creates a raw file and that is important for the remainder of the process. We take you through start to finish. View this video here in HD or you can Download it to your Computer

Video 054 – Bracketed Exposure Editing in ACR & PS – My standard editing technique, using ACR, smart objects and multiple images with different exposures. This example was shot from a tripod.

All this can be done with multiple images with no risk to our originals. View this video here in HD or you can Download it to your Computer
