To me, proper HDR shouldn't always be entirely obvious. And in black-n-white, it is even less obvious than it would be in color.
The other thing is, HDR may reduce contrast that was there - and when it sin't there, it may seem "correct" or more pleasing to the eye.
So perhaps meeting the challenge is not necessarily obvious to the viewer.


Agreed. As with the panorama challenge I spent a lot of time thinking about voter perception. Will they accept a properly done HDR image that doesn't look like anything but a well lit B&W, or are they looking for that "look" of overcompression and excessive structure? I'm not saying where I went or what I believe to be right, because I already said a lot about that while this was still in the submission phase. There are people who understand what HDR is, people who understand some of what HDR is, and people who think they understand what HDR might be. If all of them are voting it makes for interesting edit choices.

And it's a 5 file HDR that probably doesn't look like it.

Yeah...I can see now why I am getting my butt kicked.

Still, I voted, and fairly too.
