Just becoming interested in HDR photography. Could I use lightroom 3 to process my image or do I need Photoshop :)

Personally I didn't like Photoshop CS5 HDR functionality. It was quite unfriendly compared to dedicated software from others. I use Dynamic Photo HDR, and there's also photomatrix as another popular option to look at.

Will give that a try. Is it free software or am I just looking on some dodgy website :)

Neither are free but are not expensive either. As usual trial versions can be found to try.
