In this quick tutorial I will show you how to use blending modes in Adobe Photoshop CC to create the best HDR image.
Sometimes, the easy HDR merge tool that both Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop, and as well as other third party plugins provide are not always the best solution. Therefore, after experimenting with blending modes in Photoshop I was able to achieve great results and also be able to control each individual exposure to its fullest potential.
Now I am able to share my method with you all in hopes to help others process difficult HDR images using a better creative way.
Watch me as I import seven different exposures of the solar eclipse into Photoshop and use blending modes such as Screen, Multiply, Overlay, Lighten and more to achieve the best HDR image possible.
