I'm trying to do HDR in Photoshop CC 2017 with Camera Raw (Merge to HDR Pro). I'm shooting in RAW. Here's a random one I just finished doing. See the odd looking blue bokeh to the right of the flashlight and those 3 grey bokeh at the top? All of them have an odd edge. I've been blurring those out, but originally they are hard pixel stops without any blurring. They also only exist in the HDR version and not in any of the originals. It seems to only happen with really bright spots.
I was wondering, what causes that? Am I taking too much of a range of photos and exposures? It seems to happen with stuff that has only a few images and stuff that has tons of images. Or, is it just artifacts caused by HDR Pro plugin which gets enhanced in Camera Raw?
