You got way more guts than I do.  If I were doing a 5-shot bracketing for HDR I would've used a tripod.  You must have a program that does an excellent job of alignment.

I'm assuming that the first two are the same shot, just cropped different cause I can't see any real difference between them.  I like the crop of the second one better.  Just me, but there's a tiny bit too much road at the bottom OR I'd just crop the puddle off- but that's nitpicking.  Nice shot as is!

I like how you messed with the color sliders on the BW version to bring the truck (yellows) out.  Looking good!

(For those wondering, in PS, Image/Adjustments/Black and White there is a dialog box that comes up that lets you adjust the lightness/darkness of each color individually when converting.  For you Elements users, Enhance/Convert to Black and White and you'll have some presets and sliders to play with also.)

I didn't have a tripod. I just aimed at the same spot on the truck. I used Photomatix for the HDR. I am going to try and use just three images and see how it comes out. The first two are the same I removed the electric meter.


Thanks
