The other day I decided to try out the Nik Software HDR Effects Pro I recently purchased. It's a stand alone plug in that can be used in either Photoshop, Lightroom, or Aperture. Awhile back I had photographed Hallman's General Store because it's such a charming "country" general store near Chester Springs.

So I opened the photo in the software and experimented with the control settings. And wow! the effect came out beautifully! Now I love creating images in HDR Effects Pro. You can either expose several frames from 3 stops under and 4 stops overexposed to create your HDR. Or as in the case of Hallman's general store, you can work with a single image. But when you use bracketed shutter speeds, the effect is even more stunning.
