Going through a real HDR phase at the moment, well pseudo HDR - this is nine conversions of one RAW file.

f/5.0, 1/320th sec, ISO 100 @ 18mm. C&C welcome

No probs. Well, you know when you shoot in RAW you have to convert the file into something like a JPEG or a TIFF to work on it? Well this image was created by doing this several times (it was actually twelve now that I've thought about it) changing only the exposure value each time, before saving as a TIFF. I think the range went from -2 up to +3.5. Then each image was run through a noise reduction filter before processing in Photomatix. Strictly speaking, it's not HDR because you're supposed to use differently exposed shots as opposed to differently exposed conversions of the same shot, but I think it works pretty well.

Hope this helps.
