Default "Official" HDR Pic Thread!

Not sure if just a regular poster like me is allowed to make an "official" thread, but I figured with the popularity of (and my love for) HDR photography growing constantly, why not have an official thread reserved for it? Not sure if it should be S2K content only, but perhaps preferred?

Anyway, let me start with a few shots mostly taken in Chicago. I know my car isn't really anything special, but I just love taking / making HDR pics:

I think where you need to work on is not much the HDR part but your background. HDR pics works great when it involves a great picture of the sky with it.

Nice pics but colors looks a little over saturated. Also, too much sharpening?

i like the thread, but i feel most of us do not have this art any where close to mastered. i'll post mine as well, even though i have posted it before, its still my favorite although it looks like a painting.
