HDR attempt

This picture is my first attempt at HDR photography. I used a tripod and bracketed seven exposures. I then fed the pictures to Photomatix software which combined the exposures to produce the final image with a high dynamic range. I adjusted the photo further in lightroom. The picture was taken at the schoolhouse in the Cradle of Forestry on the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Shot with a tripod, cable release, Nikon D300 and 18-200 lens.
