first 3 exposure HDR shot

I have been experimenting with NIK Software's HDR Efex Pro on single exposure shots recently and was anxious to try out a multiple exposure shot.

Still too darn cold (for me anyway) to wander too far from home so I just went out on the front porch and too the three shots that make up this HDR image.


Click on the image to see a larger view. Still a lot of things to learn about this software but you can download a free trial from NIK's website so give it a try!
