Combining huge dynamic range to a "pleasant" picture can be tricky. If you 
make everything similar in light value, then you lose the contrast between 
highlight and shadow, e.g. flat.

But! I think Tina is just making a point. If she were to really make a 
combined picture, chances are she knows how to do that in Photoshop better 
than most of us...
