Make Fake HDR (High Dynamic Range) effect with Gimp

With this HDR plug-in for Gimp you can make High Dynamic Range photos. After running the script on the original photo it has a more color look and it's like it has a bit 'bump'-effect, a little 3D effect.

How does it work
Off course you need to download and install Gimp.

Download the HDR plug-in (it's the zip file).

Unpack the zip file and copy all the 4 files in the zip-file of the HDR plug-in.

Past them under the folder:

C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\scripts
or
C:\Program Files (x86)\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\scripts

Than open an image-file in Gimp

Go to Script-Fu in / Enhance and click on Fake HDR Effect plus

Here you can manage some levels

Then click OK

After Gimp has calculated the filter you now see a more colorful picture.
