Does anyone know how to achieve this?

If you have a lot of time on your hands to do this to every picture by moving the sliders in Photoshop, playing with layers and blending modes, then fine, there is no skill involved in that. If you don't have all that time, just use HDR and your program will utilize the same sliders and blending modes automatically at the press of a button, again, no skill involved, what it all comes down to in answer to the OP is do you like Fried Faces, humans don't actually look like that, not even the homeless.

For some people, spending time moving the sliders and trying out different options is part of the fun.

All very well.... so long as people bear in mind the old saying... "Garbage in, Garbage out".

I beg to differ Photoshop CS 5 ( which I use) is a very complex programme and a useful tool - we dont all just push a slider and hope for the best
