Do you experiment with HDR photography?
Why so serious?
If you are referencing what Ninja/Adrian wrote, then he was kidding. Hence thisHarper Coswell wrote: What is? I thought in order to make an HDR shot you need to bracket a number of photos together?

There are many nice HDR photos, but my opinion, is that this technique is very close to photo manipulation.
I prefer the classic way: no manipulation.
Of course, probably for commercial reasons is a good technique.

I know that you do this as a hobby so I have to tell you that it is not manipulation, but an old technique we even did with film. You use HDR to catch the Dynamic Range of a subject that has too great of a range for the camera to capture. As an example. If you expose correctly for the brightest part of the image, and then the dark areas are too dark to see, or recover, then you use HDR techniques. This means you get as many properly exposed frames for the dark end, the middle range, and the bright areas, then you combine as many of those images as you want or need to get a well exposed image. You throw out the bad parts of the images obviously.
