What are peoples thoughts on Aurora HD? Sounds like a good sales pitch but could a good tool if it works as advertised.

Do you mean Aurora HDR? - If so it's a great application.

Works well, if you do not over do it. Everything is fast, except "Export". I use and it is worth whatever you pay for it. Aurora integrates well into a three of my processing work flows.

Aurora HDR works fine. I had no problems with any of its features on a Macbook Pro.

Like it, use it, works great and as others have said, its fast and does a great job if you don't go to extremes.

Sales pitch is accurate. I like it alot but as is said, don't go to extremes. That said, my Fuji X-E3 produces wonderful photos and I do not rely on Aurora HDR but do use it.

Works fine even on a single image!

I use it and really like it. I use it when I do architectural images at sunset, stacking 3-5 images to come up with a final HDR image. It also works great for single images.

Tried an "Artsy" take on the landscape effect at Belfair State Park. Ducks everywhere. This a low HDR effect- some color amplification and a bit of false color added to the clouds, water and fog.

The effects do not need to be used. Simply combining shots to improve depth of field, background clarity and exposure, and to otherwise make changes that make You happy!

jpmarsh5; we've been using it for over a year, and if you don't mind the purchase price, it's a great tool, one among many. There are times Aurora can do in a very short time, what takes a great deal of work and knowledge as in other packages. Pretty sure you can trial it. Good luck.
