Creating an HDR with Merge to HDR Pro

- Let's merge these together, but I'll start by browsing the images in Adobe Bridge to make it a bit simpler. In this case, as we look at the photos, you can see that there's different changes from shot to shot, as well as people moving. If you look here at the meta data, you get an idea about how the shutter speed might have changed, or the exposure compensation changed to affect things. Easy enough. And what I'm going to do is pull all of these together. Now in this particular case if you look closely, you'll notice that it actually did change the aperture. This is less ideal, because normally what we want to do, is change the shutter speed. But that's okay. I was dealing with some pretty bright conditions, and because I'm so far away from the subject, you're actually not going to see a big change in the aperture as we move through the scene. Rather things are so far away that it maintains focus because of the distance from the subject. But you could shoot in aperture priority mode…
