When the effect is more noticeable than the photo, you're doing it wrong
More people should just let Google+ apply a little Auto-enhance to their pics and not get tempted by the HDR game.
Sorry, but unless done well, much of HDR (much like tilt-shift), look crap and I'm seeing lots of crap HDR in my stream today.

I'm just not a fan of the HDR process at all, especially the one-click wonders that smartphone users have been sharing for the past couple of years. Using HDR to bring out a blown out sky or bring some definition to the darker shadowy areas is one thing, but using it as a crutch for not being able to capture the image in-camera is something else entirely.

Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
