High in my To Buy list is the new Photoshop, and not because it runs native on the Intel chip, --I have a 1.67 GHz PowerPC G4 portable-- but for a not yet well understood (by me), but interesting new capability.
My interest is to be able to do "HDR imaging" or High Dynamic Range.
There are new concepts to learn too. I quickly found this interesting blog --you may be aware of it -- and have a look at this video .. http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/player.cfm?id={753A2FD2-D6A1-4AA7-8258-A91AAE5A7D88}
Now, in that same blog there is this image of a church http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/images/ChristChurchCathedralHDR.jpg
that
this is what the photographer Trevor Morris wrote about the How To of this image
"This photo was shot inside the Christ Church Cathedral, located in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. For this particular shot, I used a tripod and remote to capture 12 exposures, from 1/125s to 20s, with a Nikon D70 @ f/16, ISO 200, FL 18mm. I combined the exposures using Merge to HDR, increased the local contrast, and gave the image a slight saturation boost."
Take a look also at the "source frames" http://blogs.adobe.com/jnack/images/CCC_HDR_Frames.jpg
It is easy to see by looking at each of the frames how it the obviously are in "Low Dynamic Range" because either the high lights or the shadows are blocked or washed out.
All of this is new to me, the question is: Can I do this in Photoshop CS2? and, what is your experience in general merging two or more shots in one with HDR??
thanks
