not terribly interested in HDR. I hit this photo with some shadow/highlight, blended with calculations to b/w and a couple of other tricks.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

It seems that this challenge was very much one of those hit or miss ones, with very little room for anything between the two. I do like the high-key aspects and stepping into the forest of pinky sepia, but it just doesn't scream HDR at me. Pulling detail from snow in particular is already quite tough and this looks like one of those bleachy winter days. The slow shutterspeed probably did a little too much blurring for some voters here, though I don't mind it. I suppose it's best to save this technique for bigger stuff like the Rockies and large buildings/urban areas!

Hope this helps

Susan

one of my two tens. I love it when sepia languishes into pink.

Really blown out and a bit blurry.

This may be high-key but I would not classify it as HDR, the snow is completely blowout without showing any details, the focus seems to be off also.
