I've been shooting some hdr (High Dynamic Range)

I've had Photomatix pro 3 for about 2 years and I think I've made 6 hdr images. The thing is that not everything needs hdr, I think I've probably made some bad choices for some of those pictures, so some have just turned out to be crap. I have one over on my NAPP portfolio that I'm really proud of. I have it in my print portfolio as well. So, anyway, since some of my wildlife subjects have decided to take a vacation I decided to shoot some landscape hdr, that's what you'll see below. Something that I've noticed is that hdr lends itself nicely to black and white. Hdr is just a part of a workflow soI take mine from Photomatix to Acr and then into Photoshop. I like realistic hdr more than I like the fantasy harry potter stuff, but I've seen some amazing works in that style as well. Tommorow, now that the smoke has cleared, I'm going to try an hdr panorama. The two images below are the same scene one in black and white one in color.










Thanks for reading!! Lets go shoot!!!
