My current portfolio doesn't show much of this, but I assure you the updated portfolio will show this sooooon. I have been a huge fan of HDR when it is done right and am fascinated by the possibilities and future applications as we advance in tech. I always think of the scene in the movie Bladerunner (with Harrison Ford when he was young) where he puts what looks like a polaroid into some clunky machine and is able to zoom in forever and able to see a reflection of someone in the shadows from a mirror in the back of the room. This is coming.
In the meantime we have a kick ass program called PhotoMatix ( http://www.hdrsoft.com/ ). It is a great program and (although slow in parts) is pretty user friendly and provides great results.
Here is a tutorial and info about HDR and the capabilities found in Professional Photographer magazine
Here is an example of a pineapple shot 9 times under bracket mode on a D2X and then tone mapped using photomatix
