The reason I asked about the exposures is that a lot of people have a misconception of what HDR is all about.
Not all scenes are suited to the HDR process.
There are times when there isn't a wide enough difference in the dynamic range in a scene to warrant a HDR.
This is why Photoshop first checks the exposure difference of each frame and will reject them if there isn't enough of a difference within the frames.
People also confuse HDR with tone mapping which again is not the same thing.
For proper HDR shots you need a very big difference from the shadows to the highlights in a scene and to use between five to ten frames from almost dark to almost fully blown highlights to achieve a proper HDR image.
You're off to a good start though Josh.
