Dynamic Photo HDR is a great HDR program. I most often used the extreme contrast option because it was the most realistic of the HDR options. I also played around with lowering the saturation defaults. Often times the default saturation levels are too high and make the photo look really fake. I also tried doing one HDR in Photoshop. It is not as useful because there are not as many options in Photoshop, but realistically that is probably the program I will have the most access to so I thought I would learn how to do it. I love the lighting that can be achieved with the use of HDR.
