I have Photoshop CS4 and Lightroom 2...I want to take a picture and make it into a sweet HDR image. Steps in doing so would be great, Thanks for the help and tips
And personally if you are going to do a lot of HDR you should be using Photomatix. It has a lot more control over the image that Photoshop does. You can download a demo and test it out.
WHAT?? Photomatix offer more automation, like a point and shoot camera but Photoshop allows you more control and 100 times more ways to make the image. You can do the entire job in photoshop using masks or a print brush tool to paint in one image over the other. I'm not esaying which to use, Photoshop has a long learning curve while the other is automated
