Cheers, yeah 2 and 3 have had a bit of tone-mapping in photomatix. Try to be as subtle as possible wink

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range and is a buzz "word" for getting a higher dynamic range into an image i.e. more detail in the shadows and highlights. Commonly done by either taking multiple shots, each exposed for different parts of an image, or by taking one RAW image and extracting the extra detail by adjusting the exposure in PP, and then merging the differently exposed images in a program such as Photomatix. Tone mapping is then required in order to reduce the bit depth so that it is displayable.

So I've heard anyway wink
