This is a test photo. I think that when I take a good photo with my camera, I can make a good HDR. I’m not a professionist. This is a test photo.

It looks more like it has been raped by too many PS-filters. Unfortunately it seems like a lot of people are thinking that this particular "look" is the same as HDR. Usually HDR can improve on an image with huge contrasts. Like a sunlit mountainside and the shadowcast valley behind. See this example: http://www.flickr.com/photos/8088927@N06/2114821602/in/pool-hdr/ The bright horizon would probably have been completely overblown if a normal photo had been taken with exposure set on the dark ground, but through HDR both have details. Another (bad) example. Interesting picture but not HDR: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mogmismo/2131467994/in/pool-hdr/ Recognize the "look"? That looks overdone and is not a good example of HDR.
