I wasn't showing you those images and saying theyre identical. I was showing you those images to prove myself that if i sat here long enough, by adjusting the controls, i could match it. I wasn't trying to prove you wrong. I was simply trying to find out for myself and others who might be searching keywords in this thread in the future wondering if they need a plugin to make these types of images. And im suggesting they do not. Plugins for photoshop are usually made to make things a little more simpler for people who dont know how to work photoshop and sometimes quicker. For this effect, I don't think it's hard to manually achieve so I would personally just do it through photoshop and use the batch feature to do multiple photos
The strength of hdr toning /detail is the only difference between our photos. I would show you an identical image but to match the exact percent of each control by just looking at a photo is hard. If i made a photo, you couldn't match it with that plugin either. The fact is, i was close and only by small adjustments, i would have been spot on
