I have just been following a tutorial on HDR using a single raw image and when I was wanting to do the last finishing touch, using Photoshop CS3 I went to Windows to bring up the Action list and I was unable to find 'Landscape magic high resolution' my lengthy list was totally different from the one on the tutorial. Mine started off with numerous entries of Jacobs-ladder[1]. Whatever this is all about. If anyone can point me in the right direction to find this 'Landscape magic high resolution' I would appreciate it very much. I was however, quite impressed with the tutorial on using the single raw image with 2 up and 2 down exposures.

Hey Art,
Have a look at a thread which I put on Landscape forum concerning an HDR image I posted and you will see I mentioned the fact about the Action list in CS3 and Pillman told me I would have to pay for it. So what is going on? Has everyone else got this long list of Jacobs-ladder[1] in the Action list in Windows on CS3?

Jacob's Ladder is a Photoshop Action that is not a standard action included with CS3. It had to be downloaded off the web. One site is here - http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/colortheory/jl.html Another is here - http://www.broadhurst-family.co.uk/lefteye/MainPages/jacobsladder.htm

It has been generating lots of discussion on various sites.

Photoshop usually displays Default Actions in the Action palette when shipped from Adobe.

On a mac, just clicking on a downloaded action, installs it properly.

You MAY have to copy it into the appropriate folder in Photoshop in Windows, not sure, as I do not operate in Windows.

Thanks Pathfinder. I remember now it was a post on one of the Forums giving the link to Jacobs-ladder. I can remember looking at it but never used it.
