(one of the images is a TEB) TEB is my new word for HDR. It means Three Exposure Blend. I will no longer use the word HDR.
If a shot happens to be a 5 exposure then it will be called FEB and so on. ( I will make a major announcement in the HDR forums about this explaining it in more detail.

Like the TEB shots

,you could have created a new Internet description,in years to come there will be arguments as to the origin of TEB,wiki will get it wrong and loads will claim it for there own.

The problem is that TEB is only a 3 exposure blend. 5 would be Feb seven would SEB and so on. It needs a better universal name, but I think I'm on a right track.

HDR is actually a perfect name for it. The problem is that most, when you say HDR think only of the over the top disfigured and mangled high dynamic range creations.

Yes but i can say i was there at the origination of the term

and dine out on stories about the guy that invented it

Yes the best HDR IMO is when its pulled back to a more natural level.

I'm finding, that since I'm shooting with the D750, I'm actually doing a lot less TEB shots then I used to. I still take some multiple exposures for when I think I'm going to need it, but I end up using just one of those shots most of the time now.
