Default Pond HDR
My first attempt at HDR, I think it turned out pretty well.

Shot using 3 brackets, circular polarizer, Cokin P121F ND graduated filter and Cokin P125L Tobacco graduated filter.

This is a really nice example of HDR that isn't over done. Composition is really good, too.

This is a great effort. I love it...like the tree in the foreground, the colors, everything.
