I understand the whole HDR process but I cannot seem to make it look like that. I have an idea that it is some type of tone mapping or "dave hill" style.

Any help from the HDR experts here? I am just wanting that really CARTOON like feel to it! thanks in advance guys!

Photomatix makes a trial demo you try .

Thats not HDR. It looks like a Photoshop filter.

That is not HDR since it was produced from a single shot, so it's a LDR scene.
HDR = SEVERAL SHOTS AT DIFFERENT EXPOSURE VALUES

Probably what you are seeking is Tone Mapping. Try Photomatix and may The Force be with you not to produce such awful unrealistic results.

you want HDR + tone mapping (photomatix sounds like your app)

yes, not HDR.

it's a "david hill" style pp technique.

lol thanks guys. I know it is an awful technique but I find it interesting.
