So, I'm going to start by selecting these three layers, and then, I'll choose Tools and then Photoshop and then Load Files in the Photoshop Layers. That tells Bridge to hand off all three of those images and put them in the same document. So, we can see here is a picture of me that I've just moved around between the three different exposures. And I want to combine them into a single image. But even though the camera was on the tripod, we can see that there's a little bit of motion, so I'll select all three of the layers and then choose Edit and then Auto Align Layers. I'll use the auto projection and then click Okay, and Photoshop is just going to align these so that it's easier…
