I've never tried the merging layers in photoshop technique. The key to HDR photograph post processing in photomatix is the tone mapping. Tone mapping is what allows you to compress amd view all of the dark shadows and bright highlights without clipping. Depending on how you tone map you get different effects.



Or you can go for more of a "painted" look
