The HDR has brought out some good colour. I like it.

LOL. I'm not sure the effort is worth the payback actually, I could probably have got much the same with playing with levels. I don't think I'll make it part of the work flow.
Do like the colours you have got here - have actually done a version using levels that you could post for comparison?
Like the pose you have caught here

Joking aside Cedric have you tried the contrast masking technique I discussed here. I use it a lot and have it saved as an action. it's effects can be lessened using opacity and masks giving it a local effect only.
I'll have a look at that - thanks.

I could do Tom but you really wouldn't see a difference (I just tried)
The light was quite flat for this shot, apart from being slightly back lit, so there was a good range of tones recorded in the first place, and the HDR has really brought nothing to the table at all - I'm not really sure why I expected it to.
