the second one is just the color temp i believe. The first one looks real good but i would make it less blueish.

No, there is no details in the shadows on the second one. That's what HDR is all about, detail in the highlights AND the shadows. Nothing blown out and nothing underexposed.

Like in the first one.

WAY too many people think all those oversaturated, high contrast images are HDRs, and they aren't.

I have noticed that with a reflective black car (like mine, and the truck) you end up with a chrome look to the paint.
Which looks too fake in my opinion.
I have played around with the shadow clipping and seemed to find a happy medium.
