Even though I purchased Photomatix a few months ago, I hadn’t really spent much time with HDR photography. Tonight I had some time and found what I figured would be a great subject for my first attempt at tone mapping. I made this photo of the Black Hills Central Railroad on one of its tourist excursions between Keystone and Hill City, South Dakota.

I’m a bit biased, but I figure it’s not bad for a first try at tone mapping…
