An almost ethereal effect with bracketing 3 images in photomatix pro. The original image, although very striking lacked punch. I loved the original but found that the tones became very distorted once I tried just lowering the exposure level in lightroom and just couldn’t achieve the desired image this way. I’m really pleased with this HDR as it really captures the moment how I remember it far more than I was able to achieve with the single exposure image. Enjoy
