How to HDR?

[chameleon]

I understand how HDR works (I think). I was wondering what settings to use regarding AEB for the original elements?

[grim8634]

I use +/- two stops plus the original.

Same here.

Hmm, Ive used 1 stop, that might explain why they dont work very well, not enough contrast I guess.

This was my first attempt at HDR and I used the +/- two stops plus the original as suggested by grim8634 and it seems to have worked ok.

Definately going to work on this process more as I really like the effect it produces.

Another worthwhile tutorial for users of Photomatix (worth the money IMHO)
