The ships are indeed no problem if they're far enough. Have them in the foreground and even while there's no wind at all these buggers always sway slightly. But this is also a prob in conventional long-time exposures where they'll just be blurred. The newer versions of Photomatix Pro automatically accomodate some kinds of movement between individual shots. Things like leaves moving in the wind or light reflections on water surfaces usually come out OK, albeit a little blurred but since most people don't know what they've looked like when the picture was taken, this usually goes unnoticed. Things like moving cars or pedestrians are a different thing and they can require a lot of manual retouching work. So, they're best avoided altogether. Ralf -- Ralf R.
