A photograph should speak for itself. While we sometimes offer explanations 
here, that's for discussion and enlightenment. It's certainly not a mandate 
and, IMO, it's inappropriate in some venues.
BTW, I think it's much more likely that he employed gradient filters than HDR. 
But either is fine with me. Again, no explanation required. The artist's tools 
are his own.
