HDR -- My First Attempt

HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. I took three shots--one with the correct exposure, one over exposed, and one under exposed. Different parts of the photo were captured correctly at the different exposures; for example, on the over exposed photo, there was incredible detail in the clouds yet no definition in the dark foreground. Thus, HDR takes the best parts of each image and combines them into one. You can even give the resulting photo this cool surreal look--let me know what you think! (This was done using the free trial of the Dynamic Photo software.)
