High Dynamic Range!!

Sorry for not updating this blog.. I couldn't upload my photos from my memory card since the lappy is servicing... So today I was walking around my house and wondered about HDR, I got excited and snapped a few photos with subjects i think look suitable for HDR. I snapped them in RAW format but i didnt have Photomatix so I just used HDR toning in PS CS5. I have no experience what so ever on this so I'm not sure wether im doing it correctly or not. Anyways here are the photos, Comments and critiques are most welcomed. :D

Black and White window

After my chemistry exam today i went home and just took out my camera, looked outside and tried some B&W shooting and i found that this window was the perfect subject. Took it, was happy with it above the rest of B&W photos i took from the window. One bad thing is that the subject has an ugly reflection of the window where im standing =( Then i uploaded it into my computer, added some vignetting effect and bumped up the contrast a little with PS CS5. Then I added my watermark ;D The first time i actually used the grunge effect lol...
