First HDR, Sunrise in Lira-Uganda

[rlineberg]

This shot is from my trip to Africa this past July. There are a lot more on my website if you are interested, but I am looking for C&C on this HDR.

How many exposures make up the HDR? How large is the range between exposures (1 stop, 2 stops, less or more)?

I like the image overall, my eye finds it interesting and nice to look at. Usually with HDR though, I would have maybe expected a bit more detail in the dark areas of the rock and perhaps a bit more contrast and detail in the cloud / sun region.

Makes me want to go to Africa :).

There are 3 exposures making up this HDR and they are at -2,0,+2.

I don't have the original with me here at work... but i can post them later if you are interested.

It may have just had so much range that 3 exposures couldn't capture it all, maybe a 5 exposure set -4, -2, 0, 2, 4 would have had enough range. Who knows though, all that range might have made it look unnatural and overdone and this one here looks very real to me.

Very different, I like it!
