If you want to apply a HDR effect on a single shot then you can't beat Topaz Adjust. It's a very versatile program that can also be used to correct exposure, put "pop" into your photos, sharpen, and denoise. It includes dozen of presets to give you a one-click effect but also allows you to adjust manually.

I have been using it for years and rate it as brilliant. It integrates well within Photoshop and Elements.

I really enjoy being part of this community and find the topics entertaining and often amusing.

I took up photography when I retired but spend more time on post processing than taking new shots.

I am about to ditch my Canon DSLR and buy the Panasonic FZ200. I know I won't get the quality shots of a DSLR but I need to get out more shooting without a heavy camera bag.

I observed these construction workers admiring al the young girls walking by in the sunshine.

I hid behind a tree to take the shot as I didn't wanted to be spotted by the one with the muscles.

Watching all the girls go by
