Nice pictures! Nice vantage point also. Did you happen to get a shot of the kyakers going thru the rapids?

Good photographers only show you their best images, not all of their images.

I really like these. Not overdone like many HDR pics that appear more painting like than photo. These strike a perfect balance imo. The HDR is used to help the photo rather than dramatically change it. Great job.
May I ask what program you use for your HDR?

Thanks for the feedback. My first couple of runs were way over-processed. However, a video tutorial I saw on PhotoCamel helped me improve my HDR processing. The HDR program I use is Photomatix 3.

Nice - how did you maintain the look of the water? When I shoot HDR of moving water it - the water - takes on a soft look because of it's movement during the bracketed shots.
Thanks

I have to tell you that I am not a big fan of HDR. Many of the images I have seen do not look real. Your images are great and and do not go over the top.
What software do you use in PP?

If I recall correctly, these shots were originally in A mode, but I had to watch the shutter speed closely to ensure the shutter wasn't open too long. Based on the amount of light that day, I don't think that became an issue (as far as the camera wanting to leave it open much longer).

Thanks!. However, I must admit that many of my HDRs do have that over cooked look. My first run through of Great Falls HDRs did as well. But, I was able to overcome that once I learned how to make better adjustments. That being said, I have a long way to go. There are some great photographers out there with great vision and a keen eye that are doing some great things with HDR. I am just trying to learn from them and improve on my own shots.
For these, I used Lightroom along with PhotoMatix Pro 3
