Good to see ya back Ho. They look really nice, but a little noisy in some places. Is that a sprinkle of Topaz I see?

HDR (High Dynamic Range) Photography uses 3 images.

One normal exposed photo, one underexposed photo, and one over exposed photo. (all of these taken on a tripod so they are aligned the same)

Then you insert these photos into an HDR Program, such as CS2/3, or Photomatix.

It then generates an HDR Image, then you edit with CS2/3 and done!

In the second picture. Whats going on with the truck on the left? The color seems off.

I like the first one. But the second one is a bit random in brightness.

Eh? HDR isn't about making it supersaturated. It's to balance out the lights and darks, you're just oversaturating the picture making it noisy.

I edited some parts of the image. Here it is if you want it.

It may help you, somehow.

Also, I like them but they are way to over saturated.

Regardless of it's a bump, the images have too prevalent halo'ing.
