hi thanks so much for your fav and comment...yes this one was 5. but i sometimes add 7 or 9 and them play around with the mapping...then i may adjust or drop a couple completely depending on the results and start again.

drop by again please...

oh i see that the processing can (should) be done few times.. thank's for all the tips. I'll try with 7 or 9 and what EV step do You use between those pictures?

i'm sure i'll be visiting Your profile regularly (adding to watch will help not to miss any of Your works)

it is easier for me to take 3 shots (bracketed) and then i use my raw program to lighten or darken these 3 to come up with the total of 9...sometimes after processing the tone map it looks way off or too dark so i will go back and drop out a couple of choices and try again.

Lately I have been taking just 1 raw shot and adjusting it to make 5, 7 or 9 with some amazing results (as an example this one was a 1 shot raw that i mapped with 5 versions) [link]
...the experts frown on this 1 shot style...but to me its all about the results...not what someone says does or doesnt work for them. some of the images i have bracketed have not been as good as the 1 shot...I am still learning each time i go out for shots and experimenting with the process is great fun.

i am gonna add you also...i cant wait to see your progress. there are so many styles with HDR. its amazing that each artist has a unique look even though they are using basically the same tools...just like a painter.

sometimes i also use this 1raw technique, but it i usually when i have no choice. it is hard to believe that You made that house-one from just 1 raw it's amazing.

sure the results are more important than the theory

thank You for adding and the belief in my progress actually it is my beginning with HDR so i'm kinda experimental..
