that is by bracketing and then extracting the images to a digital form,
where a composite can be created/manipulated with much more information
than any single frame could have hoped to hold. Obviously, this only works
for particular types of subjects (landscapes in early morning and late
evening is where I've applied this technique -- sometimes I've bracketed
three stops on either side of average, and still haven't managed to capture
all the details I wanted!).

Hi Garth,
Any chance you have, or could provide, an example of your very interesting
technique? I'm thinking perhaps of a raw scan of both slides and then the
composite creation. Any further details about the computer work involved
would be welcome too.
Thanks for sharing this idea.
Joel
