Compressed Dynamic Range photo

I took 9 photos, ranging from 30 seconds / iso 800 / f/4.0, to 0.5 seconds / iso 100 / f/22.6 (14 stops?), merged them to a high dynamic range image, then reduced the contrast back to the LDR here. Not perfect, but fun. Software used was qtpfsgui (open-source) (using save preview, not tone mapping!).

Cool! And the two bird pics before it in your gallery are also very cool. Some kind of hawk, do you know?

(In honor of your raptor pics, I'm using my "dinner" userpic. :-)
