 Went to Las Vegas on a business trip and thought, "hey, I haven't submitted to DPChallenge in a while, lets see what I can shoot out here." So this is a fake HDR image I did trying to find a better way to create an HDR image rather than CS2's Merge to HDR tool.

Image consists of three exposures.
- layered in photoshop from lightest to darkest (Darkest as the top layer)
- Layer Mask on top two layers, apply image to layer masks, and brightness contrast on layer masks to fine tune exposure of shadows and midtones.
- Merged layers and cropped to proper submission size.
- Applied vignette
- Save for Web

I would have actually believed the real Paris, but the Ballys is a giveaway. I would have cloned it out and chosen a different title that doesn't give it away.
