Photomatix has a tool for fixing ghosting normally caused by not using a tripod or monopod.

Do you slight misalignment in the photos? If so, Photomatix or PS will take care of that, as Dog Don said above.

The only way to insure the absence of ghosting is to use a solid tripod, and hopefully a windless day. Hang a wight (your gadget bag, or other) from the hook on the bottom of center column of the tripod, if there is one.

Your situation seems to be extreme, since the ghosts in your exposures are moving so fast that they lost their
"H";-)

you can create ghosting when an object in your image is moving between the shots in your bracket. you shoot 3 shots of a moving boat or car you are going to have ghosting no matter have strong your tripod is. thats why we have the really good software to fix it

Yeah, you're right. Tripods are not a 100% fix, so we should probably ignore their use completely, and just rely on spending three or four hours at the computer fixing all the problems that could have been avoided from the gitgo by a little forethought.

I'm not saying you should not use a tripod. I believe in them and there are all kinds of reasons why you will get a better result with them. I just wanted to point out that the ghosts are inherent in HDR originals and we need the specialized software to deal with them.
