Aloe Blooms #2

Shot with HDR bracketing, set of 3, 2-ev steps, at 100 ISO.

I actually took 9 exposures in groups of three. The second and third sets I manually set the f-stop up 2 stops for the second set, and down 2-f stops for the third. This was in an effort to get greater dynamic range, but I found it doesn't really create any noticeable difference, not to mention the fact that in many cases it introduced extra blurring and alignment issues with the HDR file. So I'm sticking to just the one set of 3 exposures from now on. Which is good as it means fewer images to store and deal with.
