Some of the shots on that guys site are neat, but not really HDR as HDR is meant to be used. If you don't process in RAW, and don't properly map the 32 bit images down to 16 bit, you get the posterized look of some of these shots. HDR done right is supposed to look like a normal picture, except a much wider range of light and dark have detail. Just like our eye can detect detail in a very wide dynamic range, the picture is supposed to do the same.

Here's some of my recent HDRs.
And for fun, here's an overfiltered one I've done.

RE: Hdr photos
Ok, here's a before an after. Also, the final result on this one did not have any other post processing at all. Everything was done with tone-mapping. See how HDR brings out the sky, and the details in the shadows, like the wheels. The small photos are the three original. The exposures in order are +2, 0, -2
