Do you even know what HDR is?
My point was to remove all shadows and have a well blended photo

Take a look for yourself at what HDR really is

i think hdr is pretty cool, but shopped photos never ever ever top a single exposure. i was disgusted to find that the photos placed 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the Smithsonian photo contest were HDR. HDR has it's place, but a single exposure takes 1000 times more skill and will impress me infinitely more everytime

just to add my two-cents to the discussion.... I think the zion HDR isn't too brutal but at the same time, one of the key components in a good photo is the balance of light and shadow, of white highlights and deep dark low lights. With HDR, you are essentially removing this crucial interplay of light and dark in favor of underexposed highlights and overexposed shadows. It can look cool, but for the most part the colors end up oversaturated and the exposures both above and below what is appropriate. It will have a place in photography and to disregard it entirely is being a bit elitist, but for me, I try to stay away from it and generally dislike its effects. As they say, to each their own.

I agree, however if the subject was closer in and you had lighting on her it could be improved, still nice though.

i think if there was lighting on her it would look stupid, imo. the shadow kind of sets the tone

in that case i would go to lightroom and turn down the exposure a tiny bit and up the contrast using tones and curves for a darker subject (more silouette) that's just my opinion though.
