Thanks, Ted!  HDR just means High Dynamic Range and it's just like 
dodging and burning in the darkroom but digitally.  What you do is 
combine 3 or more photos at different exposures so you get all of the 
highlight and shadow details that the camera can't capture in one 
exposure.  That's what my lecture will be on at the Leica Seminar in 
Cape Cod.  I'm still thanking my lucky stars that you will be doing 
the critiques!!!

Hasta luego -
