Now that HDR has moved from a trend to a proven technique...at least in many professional's opinion...I'm curious what exciting new trends you see emerging in photography and/or post-processing?

I actually think the funniest HDR's are the ones that are made of scenes with a narrow enough subject brightness range that a single exposure can express the whole range of tonalities... they look just like normal photographs.

If they're done realistically, and well, most people would think they were a single exposure. You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

You'd think the entire world looked like a 1970s album cover; or maybe it's that everyone sees it like that but a few of us! _______________
