I like it too. The colors appeal to me. Tim posted this on Google+ as
well, and it was interesting to read the many, many responses to it, and
I'd say the shot was very well received. I'm not anti-HDR; I even bought a
book on it, and I like a lot of the stuff in the book. Very well done. I
like traditional photography too, of course. My view, for what it's worth,
is that HDR right now is rendering-dependent--content etc only so-so
interesting. Traditional street, reportage etc is content-driven, tells a
better story, more interesting, but in fairness, it's hard to do HDR with
moving subjects for all the obvious reasons. There is such a thing as
photorealistic HDR--a whole section on it in the book I have. Bill's shot
is a nice example I think. Cheers, Christine

I like this shot, and I do like this kind of effect sometimes. The
problem is that, too often, everything starts to look like this.

Cool shot, and some truck. Absent manipulation it must have about 2 feet
of ground clearance and tires 3 feet in diameter. But is the actual effect
HDR or microcontrast? I've been playing around with 'HDR' software and
find that you can get interesting effects from jsut one exposure - no HDR
there, but there is micro contrast. Sorta like the high-pass filter in
photoshop made useable...
