Falling in love with HDR. Each are merged from 7 photos taken 2/3 EV apart 
tell me which one you love more - Teddy Bear or Evening. Each HDR is clickable by itself, a larger resolution (800 x 600) opens up in the lightbox.
Have a great week everyone! Hope this two HDR washes away your Monday blues

I love the evening shot though the little pillows are too cute. One of my best friend has had one of those since she was an infant. It has been used so much that the foam in the casing has become really thin but she still travels with it

Love these! Especially how you’ve done the evening shot– the odd house out.
Keep it up!
You really are getting better at photos and editing.

denise: Yeap, it’s mine! In fact I won it in a funfair about 3 to 4 years back, obviously lady luck was on my side, because that game was nearly impossible to win!
thecoffeesnob: That’s one vote for Evening. Well I don’t really hug my teddy bear a lot, it just sits there looking at me sleeping every night. But I guess repeated washing and itchy hands (that picks strings of foam out of the bear) will make it look smaller over time. I had done this to one of my stuffed toys before, and my aunt was good enough to refill it again.
Ophelia: That’s two votes of Evening! Thanks for commenting!
Grace: Thank you for the compliments! Well it’s not actually me getting better with photography but rather, I’m more used to photoshopping, LOL
judging from your comment, that’s another vote for Evening! Oh and the odd house isn’t an intended effect… the neighbour just decided to paint it orange on New Year’s Day. We initially thought it looks weird, but hey in the end it looks pretty cool in the photo eh? 
And thanks for the link from your blog! I really appreciate that.
Ivy: Three votes for Evening! Your question isn’t stupid at all, don’t worry
I’ll be glad to be of any help to you. I merged the HDR from 7 differently exposed images (from dark to bright, or vice versa), and used a programme called Photomatix to do all the hard work. And pooof the final HDR will appear, after a little tweaking with some sliders. It’s actually not a hard job, it’s taking the photos that is challenging, since all 7 images have to be overlapping each other, so you’ll need a tripod, or a pair of incredibly steady hands (and feet, maybe!) 
hah! Maybe I shall post a tutorial about it.
