My first attempt at HDR - 5 handheld shots in Photoshop. Any feedback appreciated - I was after the HDR clarity and feel while still keeping it true to the scene
I really like the way you've composed this shot Robyn, and you've done a great job with your first HDR too. Personally, I'd like to see the brightness toned down just a wee bit, and the small twigs top right removed in Photoshop. You've done a good job of keeping the dreaded halo effect to the bare minimum. Well done.
Great capture and haven't a clue about HDR!! I know I have a mode for it on my camera, but you have to use a tri-pod and it takes 3 photos in a row. After that I don't know anything!! I did it without the tri-pod but wasn't that impressed with it, so it's something I did, cause I do like the effect on certain photos. I think your's is great and especially for a first one. There should be some helpful hints about it if you google it!!

On the 650D, there is a setting on the Mode Dial (the big wheel on the top right of the camera) for HDR. It is the last setting when the wheel is moved in a clockwise direction. Don't know if it the same on the 600D
I forgot to say that I almost never use a tripod Robyn. I don't think it's a necessity for daylight HDRs, but different in low-light, of course. Have you found where your AEB settings are now? If not, check the index in your manual under AEB.
