Hi, welcome, and other stuff.

Like to tell us how you shot and processed this?

Took about 7 exp ranging from f/4.0-14. Used PS CS4 merge to HDR. Changed it to 16 bits made a few corrections, did a bit of burning and also found a tutorial on here on how to do it. This was my 5th attempt. I found that after reading post on the subject that you have to have Dynamic Range to achieve this result. I'm going to have to play around more. Thanks for any feedback.

Hi Ken,

First rule in bracketing is to vary the shutterspeed, not the aperture. Varying the aperture creates different depth of fields which creates problems for the merging software.

Hope this helps

That's right, thanks!
