It's not true HDR, but cool none the less. It's so easy a caveman can do it and you don't need any special camera. Though I must give props for your compositions.

looks like hdr to me, just looks like he didn't tweak the curve as much as most people do. I like both styles, this one makes for really nice realistic photography, i also like the super-tweaked curves versions that people make because they have a great surrealism to them. I've been practicing a little but i still have made any shots that i'm happy with. Nice work.

thanks for the comments everyone, Renesis SE3P im using a canon S3 camera
and yes these are definately hdr pics, used exposure bracketing to get 3 pictures ranging from -2 to +2 exposure and combined them using Photomatix. then i edited them in photoshop for a ridiculous amount of time because i keep changing the most minute things haha...but its fun.
i know what you mean by some HDR pics looking much more realistic than others, i like to do both kinds of pictures. for this set of pics i stayed closer to the realistic view.

Here's what I mean about true HDR. I'll copy and paste the bit of info from the link I just posted.
"HDR" is now popularly used to refer to the process of tone mapping together with bracketed exposures of normal digital images, giving the end result a high, often exaggerated dynamic range. This composite technique is different from, and generally of lower quality than, the production of an image from a single exposure of a sensor that has a native high dynamic range. Tone mapping is also used to display HDR images on devices with a low native dynamic range, such as a computer screen.
I have done Photoshop manipulation for 15 years. www.altspace.com
Below is an example of making the curves more true to life.

altspace so when you use hdr its just to get a more true to life picture? because your pic looks like all the levels are balanced. But in some cases the HDR i see like the pic i posed almost look cartoony, how is that achieved
