HDR, Again

I think a lot about HDR for someone that really doesn't do HDR that much. So far, I still like to do my HDR with Photoshop layers, but when they get natural-looking, pain free HDR worked out (in the camera or in the software, or -- hopefully -- both) I'll be happy. Photoshop CS4 still looks flat compared to doing the same work on layers inside Photoshop (since I have the tool open anyway, I might as well use the best practice).

I think I'm going to give Photomatix a try again. It looks to me like this is still the best tool available. The latest changes seem like it's getting better. I will post the results if I like them.
