Nice capture Joel, I like sunsets and am quite interested in HDR, seems like Photomatix is the software of choice for this type of work.
Joel Hall replied
Thanks so much! This was my first attempt at sunset landscapes, hdr or otherwise. I was quite pleased with the outcome. It is sometime hard to tell which I like better, so I decided to post a mix of my hdr’s from the set and the normal shots.
