I don't know if this belongs here or in the beginner's place, so if a mod feels like moving it that's fine with me.
Anyway, I have a few quick question regarding HDR. I know it involves multiple exposures merged into one...but know nothing other than that. I've seen in the galleries peopl will recommend using HDR with certain shots.
1. How do you decide when HDR is a good idea and when not to attempt it? Does it help if there's alot of contrast in the shot?
2. Can it be done in Photoshop Elements (I currently have this) or CS2 (I might get CS2...hoping that the release of CS3 will drive CS2's price down)?
3. Is it hard to do, or does the software pretty much do it for you?
4. Does it work best with bracketing...or does it not matter?
Thanks!
