First try at some HDR pictures
I was kinda having fun with photomatix and was just experimenting. I'll post more pics when i get the chance but i kinda like the way this picture came out.

Sweet. It came out really well, but doesn't seem to have the standard HDR properties.

yeah, this shot didnt have much color to begin with so hdr doesnt really look that impressive but I thought it came out pretty well overall and i still have a lot to learn in regards to lighting and such to take better photos. Hopefully i'll get some daylight pics once i get the time.

What does hdr stand for? What does it do?

Sorta looks like it has something to do with a slow exposure but I'm sure it is much more technical than that.

it will eliminate shadows a bit more, little more detail, and a little more of the traditional hdr weirdness (if you want it anyway)
