Misty deck anyone?

This is a single RAW HDR (3 exposures extracted -2/+2) of a very misty deck at the bottom of niagara falls. I don't know how i feel about the mist almost looking like noise in the HDR. Opinions on this?

Single RAW? As ina single RAW shot that's been tone mapped? That's not HDR.

Still High Dynamic Range even if 3 exposures are extracted out of a single RAW. I've done plenty of edits actually taking 3 shots vs single RAW and 90% of the time you won't spot a difference. I know many people will disagree with this, but even after taking Trey Ratcliff course on HDR which in my opinion he's an HDR king many of his shots are single RAW edits.

As EDL says, not a true HDR but this doesnt have a great dynamic range and with all those people moving a single raw file is the best way to shoot this. Nice processing, but too bad you didnt have a wider angle lens.
