Thanks Steve. If you get a nice day you can get some great pictures around it. Unfortunately there was a car in the backround when we were taking pics.

I figured there was, I'll admit I only did a very vague search but I found it now. Is there a way to merge this into that. I'm assuming this is the thread you are referring to....http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123724779
Oldies but goodies from other previous threads - what i do to make it really easy to make HDRs, quicket simplest way - is i just take the photo i want to HDR, and Just adjust the brightness a little in each direction 5-7 times, and it turns out perfect. And yes, i like to over-do mine, its my style. what can i say.
now i look like a dumbass lol

^ Thanks Funky. The process really isn't that difficult. I'll start with one pic and take it into PhotoshopCS2, once in there I'll save it as 1. I'll use the same pic that's already open and go to Image > Adjustments > Exposure and either adjust it (just the exposure) up or down. All I do is look and see where I get the best detail for either the higher or lower the exposure. Once I get that set I'll save that as 2. Close that pic out and reopen the original pic you started with. Go back to your exposure adjustment and do the opposite as the previous step. If you adjusted up first, adjust down and vice versa. Save that as your number 3. I've only experimented with three different exposure settings right now, you can use more. I then open up Photomatrix Pro 2.4.1 and go up to HDR at the top and under there will be Generate. Browse to where you saved your pics and pick the three (or however many) you used. Once it generates I go back up to HDR and pick Tone Mapping. Adjust till you see what you like.
