Have him take a shot of the window sticker. It might change your mind.

My shed revisited. This is a two shot merge. One exposure for the sky, one for the foreground. Both handheld. I may try a B&W conversion of this later.
(Just FYI, the bright line along the horizon really was there this morning. It was a lifting ground fog lit by the sun. I could take it out, though, if it's distracting.)

I'd be curious to see a high-contrast B&W version, but I think I'm going to prefer these realistic colors. Dave

The single exposure method can work, but will be a stop or two short in dynamic range. Even with this example there's some blow out at the sun, but there's probably little detail to be had there. Dave

Thanks, Dave. I guess this does qualify as HDR, even though there's no tone mapping. I'll play around with the B&W later, but I agree, I think the colors here add to the image and will be missed in the B&W.

After railing against overly tone mapped HDR, I'll now put in a vote for high-contrast B&W. I guess Ansel Adams ruined us and a "realistic" B&W just looks flat. Your sky has lots of potential to show off high contrast B&W and getting those trees nice a black will result in a nice shot I think. Dave

Meh. I think I need practice or a good plugin for B&W conversions.

What are you using for you B&W? I use DxO's FilmPack 3.0. I think it'll plug into LR, but I'm not certain without looking it up, which I'm too lazy to do. Dave
