This is how a lot of HDR images come out, interesting, but pretty cartoon-y and not at all realistic looking.

I’ve been messing around with trying to get more realistic looking HDR photos. Too many of the ones I have create look like surreal cartoons. Cool, but not what I was looking for. I am actually pretty happy with this one. It pretty accurately reflects what I actually saw.
