Join David Akoubian as we spend the morning learning how to shoot HDR at the Southeastern Railway Museum ("SRM"). In the afternoon sesssion, we will load a few images into the computers and David will demonstrate how to import and combine the bracketed images in Photomatix. After combining our images, David will discuss the process of saving the image and then importing the image into Photoshop Elements to "finish" the image.
