why is it all the rage on flickr to make your pictures look horrible and fake? Seriously, HDR, High Dynamic Range, more like Holy Dumb Retarded

I actually really like it.

It does look fake though, though fake isn't always such a bad thing.

Anton, Trevor and I have recently concluded that HD is also killing film.
There is such a thing as too pretty.
