I am sorry, you do need to be able to underexpose and overexpose, most cameras can do this, try reading your instructions

a lovely little place I had to wade through some pretty nasty mud to get it, it is next to a road called "Bog Road"

Love this,great colour depth, fantastic composition, intersting subject. Would it be possible to eliminate the powerlines? I feel they detract from aged feeling the shot promotes. Just my feeling.

I always keep the powerlines
it would of course be easy enough to clone them out but in most of my shots I am looking for a reality and in the case of these rural areas, those power or phone lines are part of the charm

reading my earlier reply... I seemed a little defensive and that was not my intention at all, your comment is valid, I suppose I should have thought of it. I get so used to seeing them here I stop seeing them except as an integral part of the pic

hey its OK. I'm not offended at all. Its your perogative to do as you please with your shot. I think they detract from a fantastic capture but that's just my way of looking at it. You're a fantastic photographer & I love your work. Please don't apologise for not agreeing with my suggestion. Its OK really, I don't mind at all.

Could you post the non HDR version to see how this brigde would look like with a more natural view please? I'm curious!

Very balanced photo... taken at a perfect angle

I took this with the intention of using HDR, 3 exposures, I will upload the spot on exposure asap, maybe tomorrow

the correctly exposed image here [link]
hope this gives you an idea why HDR works, the contrast between light and dark is too great to get a perfect exposure
