Anyone dabbled in HDR techniques?

Just came across this technique while browsing Flickr.
Further reading suggests its 3 of the same picture taken at different
exposures, the pictures are then combined with tone mapping to produce
amazing results.

Here is an example of an HDR picture

Obviously these pictures are not mine. I think they are brilliant though,
the Two Brothers picture looks like its in some kind of 3D high definition
effect and it really stands out.

It works, but if there is /any/ wind at all, and if you have any
close-up plants or other moving objects, it's very, very tricky
to get a sharp image. Notice the trees in the "brothers"
picture look a bit mushy, although the overall effect is very
cool.

For longer-distance subjects it's much easier to get really good
results, or finding a dead calm day.
