Ian, there's not much to it, to be honest. You take a bunch of bracketed exposures, throw them at the software, and watch it try to spit something out after you've fiddled a few knobs.

Shane, wait six months and then see how you feel about HDR. My honest opinion is that HDR blows chunks. I should know, I dabbled with it for a while. The real skill is in learning how to read light, and, exposing correctly, then learning to process in RAW software and Photoshop. Throwing images verbatim at a piece of software and hoping it returns something coherent is not the way to learn photography.

I know others will disagree with what I've just said.
