Hi guys,
I am trying my hand using bracketed exposures, a typical waterfall scene with trees and rocks etc.I have all the elements in two of the shots, the water is overexposed in one and perfect in the other, but the surroundings are too dark.
The question..any tips on how to select and copy one to the other in photoshop.
Any help or pointers to tutorials would be gratefully received.
Paul.

Assuming this is NOT for a DPC submission you:

a) Open one image.
b) Insert the second image into a new layer.
c) Mask out the area of image B that you want image A to show.

For DPC you are out of luck as you can not use 2 different shots to make the image in either Basic or Advanced rules.

There are seceral threads that describe various techniques - including this one: //www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action=read&FORUM_THREAD_ID=101183&highlight=Photoshop layers

im not sure how to do this in PS, but you can try to clone the areas. Open the images then clone the areas from one photo to the other.

I do beleive that there is a way easier than this, but I dont know how in PS
