[HDR-photo] work flow issues

[Sam Kittner]

Workflow Issues:  I am still testing, but my initial impressions are  
that I get results I like better by making my hdrs to tone-mapped  
tiffs first in photomatix, then stiching...overall I'm having decent  
luck with seams blending well on skys...some times have to do some  
retouching on that...I have also tried making the hdrs in ptgui pro  
and then tone-mapping those hdrs in photomatix, and, again, my  
original workflow seemed to give more pleasing results...same with  
making the tone-mapped image in ptgui from the ptgui hdr...but there  
are so many settings that I may be under utilizing??? I have a good  
feel for the settings and look I get from photomatix with hdr-tone  
mapped tiffs.  But I wonder if the photomatix to hdr tone mapped tiff  
to ptgui blended panorama is giving me the glowing issue I just  
previously posted???  But I also wonder if that's just a trade-off in  
getting the overall look I am after.  I certainly I add contrast and  
deeper blacks into the pano after I stitch.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Best,
Sam
