My First HDR Photo

Using some of the advice from the web, I made my first HDR photo last night:

1st_HDR

This was taken from my upstairs deck overlooking the intersection by my home.  I was headed off to bed and noticed how interesting it looked outside while checking the doors.  I found my tripod, setup my Canon SD870 IS and took 13 images (-2 to +2 exposure in 1/3 increments- and '0' is the 13th one).  These I imported into iPhoto and switched over to my PC (more processing power and RAM) and opened them in Photoshop CS3.  From there I chose File -> Automate -> Merge to HDR...

This was just a quick test to see a little of how it works; I will probably go back and do this manually (as the article recommends) and see if the results differ.
