So what does everyone think about the first weekend of the new year? So that would be January 5th a Saturday.
That looks pretty good but you're making it hard on yourself. I've found that it's realllly hard to get good HDR shots when it's dark out. The software tries to bring back too much of the shadows and it makes the photo look really grainy and discolored. I would say go out during the day and try it out. I am currently trying to make a timelapse of Seattle though! Are you taking 3 pictures for each one?
I've been trying to do an HDR timelapse but it's tricky:

As far as the HDR I was experimenting with the lights at night and the sunset (well cloud set since there's no sun in seattle). I have to find a place that would look cool for a daylight setting and have 3 hours to kill. And yes, 3 pictures each shot with 1 step between.

I'm in for Jan. 5th, pending any last minute things.

I actually used 7 photos for that one. I think the program just had a hard time trying to work 7 photos together.. I couldn't seem to get the halos around the bridge to go away despite messing with the luminosity slider in photomatix. =/

A guy in Tacoma (patricksnapp.com) did a couple of mine that turned out nice.
The ones you've show here are beautiful and freakin sweet. Great location shots and a mix of perfect timing.
I'd be game if you don't already have a ton of cars volunteering

ShAngie is down. Just say where and when or you'll get stuck postponing it from trying to fit it on everyone's schedule. Haha.
