I am a big fan of High Dynamic Range photography and a lot of scenes are suitable. As you can see here, I use it (or at least try it out) not just for static objects and interiors, but also for the odd landscape. HDR images are also great as a basis for a conversion to black and white.
I have encountered a multitude of challenges (see also my blog posts on HDR photography), experimented, … and really learned a lot! Quite often I do want to achieve the very typical HDR look as for some subjects it just brings out the character, the mood of a scene with more intensity. But sometimes a more subtle, a more realistic approach to HDR is more suitable. Or maybe the more grungy HDR look for the foreground combined with a more realistic conversion for the background? There are no bounds to your creativity here!
I now have a defined and pragmatic workflow that uses a core set of software tools. See the Courses and Tuition section of my webpage if you want to learn more.
