Trey Ratcliff's HDR Photography.

Terrible, sorry. I thought it was a collage of several shots stuck together, which is what I see often with poor hdr examples.

Yes, I think Ratcliff's work is a bit overdone.

Sorry guys. Not good composition and HDR does nothing to help it. DJ is dead on about the abuses of HDR these days, and this is a prime example. Take a good look at the halo around the wind mill and building. That was never in the original shot at any exposure. Its an artifact from improper processing.

The Beauty of HDR is allowing the photographer to capture more of the composition. There is substantial loss here. Arguably corruption of the images.

If you want to chalk this up to artistic license, thats fine. But don't call it great HDR. Call it great art.

HDR id only a tool to either create an artistic piece as above or extend the range of "realistic" photography. I find your shot quite pleasant.

DJ's not a moron, because when I do a google search on HRD photos, this isn't what I'm looking for.

Not that it's not a cool photo. But it's not HDR.
