Using Photomatix for HDR Photography

Here is an HDR (High Dynamic Range) photo I took of the train located at Victorian Sqare in Sparks, NV.




Everything I have read seems to say that Photomatix is the program of choice for HDR.  I am testing it out as you can tell from the Photomatix watermark that is plopped on the front of the train.  So far it seems to be a great program.  I may have to put in on my Christmas wish list.

This photo was created using a combination of 5 exposures with 1 f stop between each exposure to capture all the shadows and highlights.  It was high noon when I took the photo so shadows were very harsh.  I shot this with my Canon 1D Mark III set to Auto Exposure Bracketing and mounted on a tripod.

Hope everyone is having a great week and looking forward to the holidays as much as I am.

Keep shooting... and think about adding Photomatix to YOUR wish list.
