The HDR Merge page only shows options that fit the bracket you're merging. For example, Window pull appears only for interiors with windows, and Sky only for exteriors.
Style
- Natural (default): balanced tone, closest to the original exposure.
- Bright & Airy: brighter, with lifted shadows.
Window pull
On by default. Replaces blown-out white windows with the view from the darkest shot in the bracket, so buyers can see outside. Interiors with windows only. Turn it off if you want the windows left bright white.
Colour cast (interiors)
Fixes the yellow or orange tint that lamps and downlights give a room.
- Auto (default): decided per photo. White rooms under warm lamplight are neutralized; painted or wood-toned rooms keep their colour.
- As captured: keep the room's colour as captured, warm lamplight included.
- Neutral: neutralize the cast so white walls read white. This may also lighten warm paint colours such as beige or tan.
Perspective correction
On by default for interiors. Straightens leaning walls and converging vertical lines. It isn't applied to exteriors or drone shots.
Privacy blur
- Blur license plates: on by default for exteriors where a car is found.
- Blur personal photos: on by default for interiors where framed photos of people are found. Art and landscapes stay sharp.
See Privacy blur.
Sky (exteriors)
Original (default) keeps the sky as shot. You can also choose Clear (blue, no clouds), Natural (blue with a few wispy clouds), Puffy (scattered white clouds) or Streaks (wispy high cloud streaks).
AI edits
These options create an extra AI-edited photo on the Photos tab, one per merged photo, with the selected edits combined. Your HDR photo stays unchanged. They only appear when the feature is detected in the photo:
- Fireplace: Light it up or Turn off
- TV screen: Blackout, Nature, Ocean, Mountain, Cityscape or Resort Pool
- Remove camera/photographer reflection
- Green up lawn: fixes brown patches, bare spots and dead grass
- Remove people
- Remove realtor sign: erases for-sale and coming-soon signs and their post
All are off by default.
Detected-feature chips
On the HDR-Brackets tab, small chips on each bracket (Window, Sky, Fireplace, TV, Reflection, Lawn, People, Sign) show what CasaVivid found. They tell you which options you'll see when you merge it.
