Just wanted to test something. The sky wasn't very interesting, but I wanted to see if I could use median blending to improve dynamic range without using HDR techniques per se. So I took 8 underexposed photos to preserve highlights, and converted them from RAW with all the same settings, using curves to boost the shadows significantly, then median blended the exported files afterwards. It worked, the shot was a lot cleaner after that. Next step is to use the technique for a photo with more interesting light.
