If you are going to fake a sky, make it a good fake.

that turned me off too, but it is a good fake whether they meant for it to be or not. If the car was moving, you could feel the G forces.

If they were going for a parking garage on a 45 degree slope, then the sky would be flat. It would be cool to angle the picture so the sky was flat with the top of the frame.

not yet actually. i took a photo class last semester with a Sony cybershot (school camera) and did some hdr, but it wasnt that great and i just used a trial program. i got the pentax right after the class ended and havent gotten a chance to really use it
here is one i did in hdr but ended up turning it into black and white and blurred the background a little
