Simulate HDR in Lightroom
|
I would have thought they were HDR if you had not mentioned it!!
The first one in particular came out well!
In fact they don't look quite as fake as lots of HDR's you see!
I shall give that a try"

Hi: They look really good. It's similar to what you can do by double-processing RAWs into Photoshop, and combining an "expose for the shadows" with an "expose for the highlights" copy. It's a great way to get more dynamic range, as your very nicely done examples show.
The nice thing about "real" HDR (where you're combining a half dozen or more shots into one, as opposed to getting the most out of one) is that it gives you the same advantage, only more so. You might gain 4 stops instead of 1.
Beautiful work, and much less hassle.

The second looks really good too. Can this be done with Photoshop Elements 5.0? Is Lightroom compatible?

Lightroom is a standalone program and you can download a free trial: www.adobe.com/products/photoshoplightroom/

Interesting...I wonder if the same thing could be achieved using the RAW conversion sliders (specifically fill light and recovery) in CS3?

Thanks for sharing this with us Tbatty. I have tried it out on a few of my own photos and it works well.

I'm not seeing any of the sample shots from Tbatty anymore.
I’ve also recently posted an article on doing HDR in Lightroom. I took a slightly different approach as this method but the results worked out well. If you’re interested, you can also download a photo and preset to see exactly how I did mine.
