    Makes it look like the car has had a new front door and bumper!
    I am not losing weight! I'm getting rid of it. I have no intention of finding it again!

    how do you do this, my camera will take the appropriate 3 shots. I have looked into it and it seems like a lot of messing about making "masks" and stuff, hardley seems worth it tbh.

    Take one shot under exposed, one over exposed, then download photomatrix and import the 3 images, and it does the rest... I tried it but it didnt quite work for me



    Maybe I need to do some work on it on my desktop

    a lot easier than I thought, most cameras have a "bracketing" mode which takes 3 shots in short succession. In the advanced settings I can set the bracketing to do a -2 EV a normal and a +2 EV (basically dark, normal and light exposure)

    if you don't have bracketing using a tripod you can take 1st shot with -2 exposure, change to normal take 2nd shot, then +2 for 3rd shot. I tried it manually and can be done in under 30 seconds

    I'm rather impressed with the second attempt and how it came out :thumbsup:
