Nice reflections.
How do you like working with the LR HDR? It certainly gave you a nice result here.
The only pain about HDR is the ghosting. Branches, leaves, flowers move, and it can turn out quite poorly.

On my current system is is extremely slow. My CPU is choking very badly and it takes about 2-3 minutes for LR to crunch together 3 frames from start to finish.
I'm looking around right now trying to figure out what mother board and CPU combo I need to buy to make LR6 happy. God knows I'm not.
But I will say I like the results and having a 16 bit DNG file to play with afterwards. It doesn't give you much control other than selecting various strengths of de-ghosting and I don't like using the "Autotone" feature as it doesn't look right to me. The nice thing about it if you do use it, it keeps the adjustments when it opens back up in LR and you can just grab the sliders to put them where you want.
I don't like the lack of being able to do a 1:1 zoom to look closely at the de-ghosting artifacts. To me this is important as I don't want to blend the images until I verify. But as it is, you have to blend them and hope for the best. Ghosting isn't an issue for distant objects but close foreground ghosting might be a problem. I haven't processed any with close moving objects yet so I can say for sure.
The lack of batch processing is kind of a bummer but I can live with that.
Thank you all for your complements!
It's very much appreciated and I'm glad you enjoyed them.
