I have been using a dedicated application HDRShop to perform this function and it requires absolute registration or else it turns into a nightmare. The slightest movement in branches on a windy day causes coloured spuriae to be rendered in the difference areas, not nice. I hadn't considered Photoshop as the stand alone application used some pretty heavy manipulation which is well beyond layer additions and simple masking. Do you know of any on-line tutorials etc?
