 My first attempt at an HDR image. It made the scene much more dramatic than it was in reality, but it looks impressive. In reality there was no storm coming, just some light drizzle.

I use 3 exposures with a difference of 1 EV, handheld with auto bracketing, imported into Lightroom and then combined in HDR effex pro 2 (from the free Nik collection).
