HDRs! For those new to the concept HDR means High Dynamic Range, which in my mind is a good definition as your main objective is to get a large range of exposures for a scene and put them together to get the best of each one.
This can be accomplished with only a few photos, and here's an example from my PSPX4 program:
Recently, I've been trying my hand at making these things, with a little success, but I know I can probably do better.
Here's my 2nd HDR of some clouds (my first stunk too bad, lol).
And now for my best one so far (at least in my DeviantART watcher's opinion, as I have more favorites on this thing than any of my other photos EVER).
The downsides are that the color is kind of unnatural, and it could have gone more sunset style than I did, but oh well.
Also, I kinda made this a tutorial, but as I'm no pro it's really just showing what I did. Please click it for Full View or view it on deviantart HERE.
After the processing I actually went and did more contrast and noise removal, as well as a few other minor things I don't remember. XD
I hope you like it!
P.S. These are all edits of the same image to resemble actual seperate exposures on only a slight scale. I haven't gotten the hang of actually taking a bunch of shots with a tripod. It would be too slow with my camera for a sunset.

I rather like it, actually.

That's a cool one! I've never seen HDR done with just different edits! Usually you use multiple shots! Anyways, I don't think I'm doing a very good job explaining myself, so here are a couple links for you to check out:
