I like them both, but are they really your shots of that type?

I'm not sure what you mean by "but are they really your shots of that type?". If you're asking if I took them, then yes.

Sorry if this question is stupid but I'm fairly new to photography, what is HDR?

I really like the first one. My only crit would be to crop out most of the green grass on the bottom of the image, then you would have an awsome silloutte of the bridge.

Oh. Mostly it's because I've been busy recently and just haven't gotten around to it. I've only been doing photography since January of this year.

HDR is a method where you merge a different exposed image in to one... this is to give a higher dynamic range to the image... for me the best software for HDR is PHOTOMATIX...

you can also create HDR in photoshop but with a fewer option and not accurate as photomatix...

to understand HDR better follw this link...
