I have never done HDR photos before, so this was a whole new experience. I definitely need more practice because I am not sure I like the effect on some of my photos. I used Photomatix to combine the three bracketed photos. And for my single shot photo, I actually used an AP on my phone called Snapseed and it has an HDR feature that I wanted to experiment with.
Like I said, I don’t love these, but at least I know how bracketing and HDR work and hopefully with more practice I can produce better quality stuff.
