can anyone please tell me how to include vividly a person,character into a HDR set of images?
can i include the person in the frames shot with the exposure parameters?
or is it possible only by means of collage?

thank you very much!

You have to sort this out depending on your situation -
What are your light circumstances, what are your exposure times - All depends on that....
Try to give the person a pose and position where he/she's able to hold still as good as possible, that's your only chance -
And of course you need a person who can do this good.

But beside all that, why do you want to do that, it's not the actual sense of HDR, only if you have difficult light settings. I don't do any HDR since over a year now, in my eyes you only should use it if it makes sense. So what is your goal - If you only want the "HDR look", you can achieve this also with a normal exposure and digital processing.

I did do a HDR with person 2 years ago, it were 3 exposures with -2/0/+2 - longest exp. 5s - Today I'd have made it completely different without HDR......

i am afraid that in many circumstances..while capturing the remains of an old,place,mansion,like you did in many of your compositions,i tended to include a character!
and yes...the person must stay perfectly still...i am aware of that matter! thank you for taking the time,Sven!

Just came into my mind, there is a german photographer - Michael Waldau - He works with models in such places.
He works with long exposures and paint with light for the persons - He uses flashlights to dodge the persons, you should take a look at his portfolio

i searched this photographer...i like his work...but unfortunately i consider that the flash dodging is a bit too artificial for my taste! but anyway..thanks for your help,Sven!
