HDR Japan does have some nice shots. The guy who inspired me about HDR did this one recently of the crashed ferry in Blackpool.

The thing with a lot of your shots, is if you displayed them without the HDR, for the most part people would still be wowed by them.

People are all to keen to try 'HDR' and totally forget about taking a good photo at all, they just snap any old crap, blast it in photomatix and then admire their creation for (imo) all the wrong reasons.

I love David Nightingale. He writes a lot for Digital SLR User, which is nice.
