If you regularly shoot multiple exposures for merging into a single high-dynamicrange (HDR) file, try this when viewing a folder full of bracketed exposures: In Bridge, choose Tools>Photoshop>Process Collections in Photoshop. This will cause Bridge to analyze the metadata for all the images and if it finds that the images were shot as a rapid sequence with only the exposure changed between shots, it will send each set of images through the Merge to HDR feature and save the resulting 32-bit HDR image in Radiance format. That way you can have Bridge merge your images while you sleep and you can tone-map the images using Photoshop or Photomatix at a later date.

Sometimes our best creations happen by pure experimentation and accident. Sitting in front of a Photoshop file, you are 40 History States in, and then it happens…magic! You really want to be able to get back to that moment. To do so, make sure that you turn on the History Log checkbox in the General Preferences (Photoshop>Preferences>General [PC: Edit>Preferences>General]). You can save the information as metadata, as a separate text file, or both!
