I've seen quite a number of threads in the Gallery's showing HDR pictures.

I would love to try take some HDR, can anyone recomend a tutorial site that I can understand how to take HDR shots?

Thanks

CS5 has a built in hdr engine, that isn't too bad once you work out the setting that suit your own images, personally I much prefere Photomatix (IMHO the best) I find with my set-up that 2 stops between images and 3 or more images gives me an effect I like, I tend to go for the more natural-ish look not the more in your face hdr.

I've been reading the Vanilladays.com tutorial. It's a very good read and explains things simply. I'll be giving it a go once home from work.

Thanks for the help

I'll have a look at the Russell Brown also.

Look at for my attempts :)

I've used both cs5 and photomatix. Photomatix is much easier to use IMO and seems to give better subtle results.

There's tons of YouTube tutorials on both tho
 
I've seen some very nice results from someone using Oloneo http://www.oloneo.com/, which is still in beta and free to download as a trial.

I think that if you download the beta you may qualify for a discount when the software testing is finished.

I did notice that it renders the picture a lot quicker than photomatix on the same pc. The HDR Re-light looks like fun!
