I am new to bracketing. I did a series of architectural photos in three brackets. How do I develop them?

    As one ho has seen far too many horrible HDR images, my advice would be to first check all three exposures in ACR. Try highlight and shadow recovery first. Chances are one of them carries all the information needed, without clipping.

      I agree with D Fosse, there are far too many images that are over the top with the HDR effect. A little effect is recommended IMO.

        In Photoshop: File > Automate > Merge to HDR Pro...

        Some use a third party app such as Photomatix Pro.
