In this case here is an image that I shot handheld, and it was a low light situation, one where I was not allowed to use a tripod, so between frames there's subtle shifting, particularly on some of the longer exposures. Let's go ahead and drag these seven images into Aurora HDR. Handholding a camera for seven brackets could be pretty difficult.

On these longer exposures here the camera shutter was open for a very long time. Now when I shoot stuff like this I try really hard to minimize movement.
