All you need to do is to enter your email address.<\/p>\n<p>Aurora HDR 2018 is available for both Mac and Windows and features a new interface, speed improvements and a range of useful tools.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most impressive features is a powerful algorithm for tone mapping single or multiple exposures that results in a very realistic starting image. When merging brackets, the algorithm analyses each image separately, automatically detecting dark and light zones and adjusting the level of detail which will produce a natural-looking HDR image. With single image processing, the tone mapping algorithm brings out colours and enhances dark and light zones.<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_135371&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 650px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-135371 size-large\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Alik-Griffin-Japan-Before_373057751_647747071-630x315.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"315\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Before<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_135370&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 650px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-135370 size-large\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Alik-Griffin-Japan-After_373057732_647747071-630x315.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"315\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">After &#8211; These before and after images from Japan, taken by Alik Griffin, reveal the transformative power of Aurora HDR 2018<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h3>Tons of tools<\/h3>\n<p>Another major improvement is the HDR Enhance Filter. A single slider adds details and clarity to an image, adjusting colours, details and contrast without creating artificial halos or other artefacts.
