HDR: Digital Blending

Hi!
AS promised my digital blending/HDR technique.
First shoot different exposures to capture the scene: for example, if shooting an interior, one shot for most of the room, one shot for the bright windows, and if necessary, one for any bright lights in the room.
Then go to this web page:
http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/digital-blending.shtml
And do the "Layer Mask" technique to combine the images. I made an action that automates this ( http://golemproductions.com/vr/digital blending.atn ). The action stops one step before flattening and I use a fat black paintbrush to add to the mask to cover the areas that don't need blending. This prevents unwanted color and exposure change for parts of the image that don't need it. Then I flatten...Repeat for all the exposures and parts of the image that need it.
This is very easy, works really well and is fast. I used to cut and paste (OY!) the various parts and exposures. That was a pain in the rear and waste of time.
Good luck and good shooting!

It works excellent and I can go into it if anyone is interested.
