HDR (High Dynamic Range), it is here , there and everywhere these days. I listened to a PODcast (How very 2006 of me) by Jim M. Goldstein the other day where he interviewed Trey Ratcliff from www.stuckincustoms.com/ about his HDR work. It was a very interesting conversation, but I heard a figure of 80% of people like HDR, and it has sort of stuck in my head, like a splinter in my mind. Do that many people really like it?

Here is an example of HDR.

That is a great example of what a normal shot looks like compared to the same scene in HDR. Thats not to extreme a version of HDR. Here is one that is.

So my question to you good reader is, do you like HDR. Is it still photography, or has it crossed that blurry line into digital art?
