Selective editing with HDR Efex Pro

One of the great things about Nik HDR Efex Pro are its selective editing tools,…which are really fantastic, and we haven't had a chance to look at them yet so…we're going to do that in this movie.…Even if you are not and do not plan to be a regular HDR Efex user, work through…this movie with us anyway because we're going to talk about a lot of kind of…aesthetics of editing and some other things that apply to any editing tools…that you choose to use.…Grab 1413, 1414, and 1415 and merge them in Photoshop.…We're merging in Photoshop because HDR Efex can't get a good registration of…these because I moved a lot between images.…

Open up here and we get our normal merge. We want to be sure we're in 32 Bit.…I want you to notice something.…Up here we get this weird purple artifact.…It took me a while to figure out what it is.…It turns out it's actually a ghosting artifact.…If I turn on Remove ghosts, it goes away.…So if you're seeing something like that in your highlights when you're merging…an image, there is a chance it's a ghost, so just take that out.…
