hi there is loads online here is one for you. but i would recommend you try doing it in a free program called autopano which does it for you one its own no need to adjust the colours at all. but here is the link:- http://www.photoshopcafe.com/tutoria..._ps/hdr-ps.htm

here is a picture i did using the autopano program with 6 photos and a little photoshop adjustments to straighten it all up.

I just did not find Photoshop delivered effective HDRs and used the free sample of Photomatix, carefully cloning out "sample" stamps for a while until I had the money to buy it. It gives cracking results and I have done over the top as well as more subtle HDRs.
altern8r - is that a one shot faux hdr - unusual to pick a moving subject like a bee for an hdr and I just cannot see the hdr effect being delivered here.
I`ve no idea how to copy in an image from my gallery onto this strange site now but here is a link to a recent one I did using photomatix.

Have you tried using Enfuse or Photomatix as alternatives to using PS as I've found that these offer much better results. My personal preference is Enfuse (GUI available) where you just drag/drop the bracketed images and it does all of the work for you.

I always post this link but THIS is the best, most complete and easiest to understand HDR tutorial on the net. Its a 10MB pdf file so worth downloading and reading at your leisure.
My own HDR FAQ and hints & tips pages are here

Photomatix is a lot easyer to use and does produce far better results than Photoshop, my main image on my page was 5 shots merged with photomatix. there are also some very good books on ebay about HDR.

I would also recommend Photomatix. Another good, and free, program is FDR tools

Have a look at this thread on the Photography on the Net forums which lists some good free HDR programs.
