HDR - First try

In Hasard Cheratte I took some photos with different shutter speeds. The purpose of that was, that I am trying to create a so called HDR picture.

HDR means High Dynamic Lighting. To explain it real short and simple: A normal picture has only one lightning level. If you have a dark and light area, you have to choose between taking an, partly, over-exposed picture while the dark area is well lit, or an under-exposed picture, where the lighter area is properly photographed. With HDR you combine multiple pictures with different enlightenings and get a nice "real-life" photo. See the wiki about hdr for more information.

I took 5 pictures (+2ev, +1ev, 0, -1ev, -2ev) and photoshop made this photo of those 5 pictures. As a first try it's "nice", but it's nothing fancy. Next time I try something with more colored light (churches do well on that topic).
