Well, I had asked in a prior thread if it was possible to get the three exposures necessary to process a HDR by taking an image I already had and making two duplicates and then adjusting the exposures of the duplicates +2 and -2 in Aperture. I guess nobody was sure so I didn't get any responses so I figured I'd just go for it and give it a try. I mean, what's the worst that could happen, right? So here's the result below. The first image is the original that was adjusted, prior to making the duplicates, with Aperture's "quick fixes - auto enhance". I then took the two duplicates and "quick fixed" them -2 and +2. I then processed them to HDR with the Aperture Photomatix plug in. What'd ya think? I did darken the brownish grass in the foreground a little as it looked a little too bright to me but other then that I didn't adjust anything after the HDR conversion.
