PhotoTuts author Andrew Gibson has posted a nice tutorial that demonstrates a simple means of “combining exposures”, by creating two different files from the same raw file and then bringing them together in Photoshop. While this technique typically won’t produce as dramatic a result as exposure-bracketing a scene from your DSLR, and then using HDR techniques to bring them all together, it’s also much quicker than most HDR techniques. So if you don’t have a lot of time to dedicate but want to get more from a scene you captured that has a higher dynamic range, it’s worth a look.
