Nice enough....no exif data I notice. I fail to see how those are any better than these, In fact they have a sort of odd HDR look to them in my opinion but I guess tastes vary.

Being that the scene range in these two shots are far less han 14 stops, you point has fallen flat. As well, it does not matter if the final output medium displays less than the capture medium in DR. That is why we compress the image and adjust tonal relationships.

Ansel adams wrote on this extensively. So has Bruce Barnbaum. I suggest you give the material a read. The comments you are making sounds a bit like that of an uniformed newbie. No offence intended, it just doesn't sound like you understand the topic at all.

Nice photos by the way. More often, the extra DR isn't needed....but only a very stubbornly biased person would claim that it isn't important when many of us find it is.

Gee thanks Dave, I own The Print, The Negative, and The Camera by Ansel. What would you suggest I add to my collection?

An understanding.

I have an understanding Dave, that is why I understand that a print only has about 8 stops DR at the most. Have you read Ansel?
