These files are direct from my iPhone 4S, no manipulation at all. The first is the middle exposure, which the camera kindly leaves in. The second is the combined exposure.
I've also noticed that in dicey light like this, combined exposures are often sharper than a single exposure. That itself is a boon, not the least because the iPhone does not have anti-shake.
Behold the added light to the ground, and the wonderful tones in the sky, which just weren't there in the single exposure.

Very nice improvements indeed. Now, if there was only some way to convert some mass-producers of HDR nightmares to this kind of subtlety...
I could never understand why people can't see how horrible that kind of pictures are.
Yes, it is quite a natural look. One problem with the HDR programs is the default settings seem to create the horrible photos.
