There is not much dynamic range to work in this low res picture, but this is more like HDR. Juan

I had to downsize a lot, and save as quality 0 jpeg, so there is loss of sharpness. I am only trying to show the enhanced DR. Not sure what this means...its either an HDR (multiple exposures) or its not. If its a single exposure that you created other exposures from, then it can't be "HDR" for the simple reason that you can't exceed the dynamic range of the original no matter how many exposures that you spin off from the original.

I agree with this. Trying to make images from a single RAW image is NEVER as good as shooting 3, 5 or more frames in camera and blending those together. You never recover the highlights as well and the noise increases in the shadows. 1Ds Mk II, 1D Mk II, 50D, 40D, XT (for my son), 17-40L, 24-105L, Bigma 50-500 EX DG, Sigma 150 Macro EX DG, Tokina 12-24 AT-X, Nifty Fifty, Tamron 28-300 (for my son), 580ex II, 430ex II

Jul 12, 2011 20:44 | #10 I agree with argyle, this is not HDR but pseudo HDR since it is from a single image, and even more, a jpeg. I was trying to show how an HDR image would look like. Juan

Was this even bracketed, or just an attempt at HDRish effect on a nice picture? Yes this was bracketed. The sky was completely blown out in the single shot. Argyle wrote in post #12744588 Sorry to say it, but I'd toss these both in the circular file. If you're a beginner, concentrate first on basic exposure and compositional techniques and don't worry about HDR right now. Getting HDR to "look right", especially with landscape shots, takes a lot of work and practice to pull off successfully.

That reminds me anyone know of any decent tutorials for HDR Pro in CS5?
