Beautiful photos everyone. 👍👍:dopey:

Here's one of mine. (EV -5, -3, -1, 1, 3, 5, slight exposure increase/adjustment, enhanced yellow in the road and grass/dirt, enhanced dark blue and light cyan in sky, increased detail in car and decreased detail/added blur to sky)

Can someone briefly explain what defines HDR from normal unedited photos?

HDR = High Dynamic Range

basically you take photo's at different exposure levels. generally 3 or 5. and then you merge them together. The different exposures merged together create an effect that lets you see all light and dark areas in the photo.

This is my understanding of it. It looks fantastic to me. I wish I had my ps3 with me here in Japan so I could continue making some HDR photos.
 
There are some really great shots here! I much prefer understated and subtle HDRs though. As a photographer IRL I've learned that the best HDRs are the ones that you can't actually tell are created by a multi-image composite.

Anyway, I've been back in the GT5 photo game recently. Here are some HDR shots of my M3 around the Ring.
