Hdrs,,, Love 'em or hate 'em

They ain't going away anytime soon. I keep hearing from some photographers how much they hate HDR photography. I guess it makes sense that so many people can't adapt to change of any sort. My lord I remember any number of photogs declaring they wouldn't ever go digital and that it was not "real" photgraphy. What a laugh! A few years later these arbiters of photographic rectitude were crowing that it wasn't real photography if you didn't shoot raw. Why do we listen to these bozos now when they holler and yell that HDR isn't real photography? Photography is  and always has been driven by technology and if you ignore significant changes to the medium you just mark yourself as a prig and a luddite. Man Ray would laugh.........

I shot this simple Hdr in the future site of Herban market in Beaufort SC. The clients wanted some pre opening images to publiciize the upcoming grand opening.
