Ziggy - Photographer's Model!

A gloomy, foggy day today and I'm feeling a bit 'under the weather' so I decided to stay in and practice a camera/processing technique instead.
Our U3A Digital Photography Group challenge this month is to take a set of photos using bracketed exposures and then merge and tone-map them in photo editing software to get a correctly exposed photo.
So I thought Ziggy would be the perfect model as he has a number of contrasting colours in his fur.  His closest ear is a bit out of focus but that might be because he moved but other than that it seemed to work quite well.  I just need to remember to use the technique when I'm out and about in high contrast environments.
