Photomatix and HDRs

Went on and on about Photomatix yesterday... here are some shots of working with it..

First screen when you hit the start button it this screen. Loading Bracket Sets of 3,5,7 set the screen fill on the middle. If your doing one then you use :File:Load a file: You dont even go to this screen.
Going through all the sets you should select Ghosting on so you can circle any moving objects so you don't get a blur.
See the arrow.. I have circled the area I think might blue then right click on it to enable it. This will let the program select the right frame to use. It fixes it then asks you if there are any others that need doing. If your good then you click on finish.
Then you select a preprogrammed concersion or select your own or work from a preselection and tweak it. Its totally an awesome program. Here are some more HDRs of misc stuff.


This last one was pretty cool. I will redo this one from the RAW file when I get a chance and the right computer. It will look great on the wall about 20in x 30in. Without the watermarks..

The of Kiss A Hoy above was with a very low mega pixal point and shoot and it still came out pretty good. 
Options are there for any and all modifications. You can spend more time doing this than taking pictures.

Fish or cut bait..
