Well i will try to keep my journals informative...
First of all: I'm addicted to HDR photography. I mean the results are stunning. The whole idea is to get 3 or 5 photos (automatic bracketing, its on your camera settings) which have different exposures so that you have a more wide tonal range (High dynamic range, that's what HDR stands for). Then you combine them using special programs or Photoshop. I use Photomatix 3 PRO. Try it :)
