Continuing my efforts to learn Aurora HDR 2018. This is a before and after image of the beautiful church in Palma de Mallorca, Spain in October of 2015. I used only a single image here for software learning purposes. CC welcome. Thank you in advance.

I think both are significantly improved and still very natural. I have used Aurora a few times now and am also very pleased with the outcome. I've mostly worked with a five shot bracket but the single shot works quite well, too.

Thank you for your favorable comment. As soon as our weather improves, I hope to get outside and try the 3-5 shot bracket. One tutorial I watched, the instructor suggested his three shot bracket approach at -4, -2 and 0. What settings do you prefer?

I am not a fan of HDR but your effort is very good, not too overdone in my opinion.
By the way, this building is more than a church it is, in fact, The Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma.

I normally use three shots 0 and +/- 2.

They look nice Dennis, not overly processed, natural looking.
