Those HDR photos make for captivating colors! Well played. Looks like a fun stop.

In reply to Trail Walker.I use the automatic bracketing function built into the Nikon D7000. I use a two-stop bracket, -2, 0, +2 stops for each exposure. I usually handhold the camera and set the shutter to fire three times with each shutter press. The Nikon has a user setting that I program for exposure, ISO, shutter speed, so I can quickly go between HDR and normal shooting modes.I use Lightroom to merge the images, but I have friends who use freebie programs on their machines to merge the images.Give them a try, they are fun to do. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

I like both the pictures and your comments on HDR. I understand the concept, even the technique of HDR, but I’ve never actually tried it. Did you shoot one picture as metered by the camera and another one stop below and the third one stop above? And did you use a tripod? Thanks in advance for your answers.
