Ok, I know I said I would never do HDR. Well, I guess I had to be properly motivated. Ever since I have capture "Under The Canopy" I have been trying to capture an "Under No Canopy" shot. DR was my #1 problem with this. And HDR being so gritty, and fake looking was somthing I would never attempt.

Ok....here goes. I merged 5 shots together using the NIK tool in photoshop. Converted it from 32 bit to 16bit, and proceded with my normal processing.



My goal was to keep the light right and for the fact it is HDR to not stand out.
