I've been dabbling with HDR for some time, and stalking these forums without posting/registering for the past twelve months. Here are a couple more recent HDR photos I've done-- nothing special.

To be honest I don't think this particular image is really benefitting from HDR, in fact I would argue that it is hurting the image.

There isn't a very high dynamic range in this composition, in fact I'm sure you could have probably gotten all the highlight and lowlight values in this shot from a single exposure. It seems that you are using HDR to simply amplify the detail contrast to accentuate the grungyness of the scene. The main problem with this is that now you have enhanced the micro contrast of the area of the picture that is out of focus causing the bokeh to become very nervous and distracting (the opposite of what bokeh should be).

If you want the micro contrast in the foreground there are many ways to achieve this effect without global hdr on the entire image. Just my constructive criticism.

@blaydese and Krob78, Thank you!

@alex, the funny bokeh is caused by someone who walked in the same room (bend/jumpy floor) that caused my tripod to shake al little bid. (didn't exclude the false exposure) This one in not the best picture I agree, but still wanted to share it with you people.

Shot taken from the top of the Bowder Stone in Borrowdale, English Lake District. The stone is a huge lump of rock about 30' high, and has often been thought an erratic, though it looks pretty clear to me that it's fallen off the mountain side.

Taken on 5D mk2, 17-40 L. Hand blended exposures in photoshop.
