I completely agree.
There's nothing worse than those grainy HDR's that look like a screen-grab
from a computer game.

Yes, moving objects are problem for HDR.
However, sometimes it could give very interesting effects (eg. moving
clouds).
Despite a lot of negative opinions floating around HDR I decided to add HDR
gallery.

Way too many people use HDR for all the wrong reasons. It's good to
see someone who gets it (mostly) right. Congratulations Marcin I've
been using my own form of HDR for years on bride and grooms shots in
the sun. I don't believe I've ever done a successful landscape using
HDR.

In this respect it is a lot like stereo. If you have a dedicated stereo
camera, then moving objects are no big problem, but if you are doing it with
a single lenses camera, (by moving the camera between shots) then moving
objects ruin the picture if they are of significant size.

Why not post a few examples?

Hmm. Where did he go? (O;

By the way, I did a quick look around for a wedding image that could
use HDR.. There's an image on this page that desperately needs help,
given the photographer didn't have the nous to use a little diffused
flash, and has ended up with a shot where both the background and
foreground are poorly exposed..

(You can almost hear the instructions - "lean in awkwardly, we want
this looking posed, and I need to see the sun *and* that silly little
white sign in the background..")

Maybe you could send your HDR technique to him. Oh, wait...

If anyone else agrees with you, I'll listen. But you're batting zero,
Doug. As witnessed by the fact that I see you now avoid chipping in
on any thread where photography is being discussed.

I have finished with you. You have zero cred.

Duck's back. Water.

PS - I see Douglas couldn't post an example of HDR wedding shots.
Naturally.

Beautiful work! I would love to have any one of those in my own
gallery!

I have played with HDR, but not been happy with the results. I was
starting to wonder if it was my subject matter, but I see you have done
very good work with stuff similar to what I tried.

Time for me to go back and try again, I guess...
