Well, I’ll admit, a lot of the HDR pictures that I see these days are ten times better than the ones that I do.  Many of them always immediately invoke the response: “how in the world did they do that?!”  Tonight, I figured I’d give a few a try.  It was a cloudy night and there was a storm coming so most of them have some pretty crazy looking clouds in them.  I used a program called Photomatix, of which I used to have a full license to but my computer blew up and I had to rebuild it so I lost that version.  The trial version puts a nice little watermark of their own on every image you save, which is just wonderful (that was sarcasm in case you couldn’t tell).  Enjoy!

This one is of the field out beside the church.

This one is of the field in front of the church, showing the looming storm that hit about an hour ago.  I did this one a little more surreal than the rest cause it looked better that way.

The church steeple…obviously.
