If I use exposure bracketing how do I combine the images in post production?

I'm using Lightroom 4 on trial to see if it is any good and if I can use it for the level I am at. But if anyone else can tell me an easy program to understand and use then let me know

Lightroom on its own wont produce HDR images. You need something like Photomatix or Nik software HDR Efex Pro

Whilst HDR is certainly one way to go, it's not the only way. You could consider blending exposures together using layers in any half decent photo editing programme. PS Elements, etc is a good way to start off. There are some free ones available, but as I am lucky enough to have PS I have never trialled any of them personally.

Good point Adam( I tend to use this method and or filters these days), although can be difficult with complex shapes cutting the horizon, unless you are quite proficient with layer masks etc.

Enfuse plug-in for Lightroom - great results!
