I am so pleased to see there is an interest in HDR at Retouch....It is such fun to do....I do when time permits do the bracketing but have done many transformations with just one photo...or i have taken the one photo and changed the exposure levels on up to 5 photos....Sometimes an extreme effect looks good but a couple of weeks ago when i arrived home from the Coffee Shop the sky was an amazing color...but it was getting dark...I went out with my camera and took single shots...didnt want to waste...

This is the first blog i have ever written and really its just to say how good it is to be back in the forum...maybe not as often as i would like...BUT....after just having the time to lurk over the past 5 months...its a vast improvement!!!

Nice to see all the(now i have to be careful how i say this as i can easily get myself in trouble!!!) Regulars ...Better than saying old faces(as that could be taken the wrong way).....Also i see lots of new members and a big welcome to all those!!!...
