Hi
There are two ways of creating HDR images.
One is High Dynamic Range rendering on the computer (Topaz, OLONEO or HDR Expose are some of those programs dedicated to this task) and the other is by taking several exposures in
Low
Dynamic
Rage (LDR) also known as
Standard
Dynamic
Range (SDR) and than assemble them on top of each other (stacking), either by using dedicated computer programs or as we all know in-camera with the K-5.
Because the K-5 manual only deals with the in-camera stacking of several LDR or SDR images most people think this is the only way or true meaning of HDR.
I run the full suit of TOPAZ, OLONEO as well as HDR Expose and all do HDR rendering.
The Image where you give wings, so to speak, to your daughter is hellishly clever - I like very much even though I am not overly keen on the HDR treatment. (Personal taste).
