NOTE

Aurora HDR 2018 can operate as a Smart Filter in Photoshop. If you designate a Photoshop layer as a Smart Filter, then launch the Aurora HDR 2018 plugin as normal to make edits. When you return to Photoshop you can always double-click on the layer and return to Aurora HDR 2018 with all edits intact.
