Summary of what I did. Taken with Canon 7D, Tamron 17-50mm at 17mm, f/8.0, ISO 100. 5 brackets at 1 stop spacing with EV0 at 1/45 shot RAW. Import the RAW files into Lightroom, export to HDR Efex Pro which merges the 5 exposures, then back to LR for final edit and export to jpeg for upload.
Really noticable that we're slowly heading to autumn (astronomically speaking), the bright nights are long gone and also officially we have a true night again.
