Could you please post the "no compensation" frame so that we can see the effect of the HDR processing?

Personally I think it is probably better with this sort of shot if the background is left (or made) much darker than the main subject so that the subject stands out better.

That's creepy looking!, you can even see the pincers and hairs on the legs. Was that taken on Macro mode?

As I said I only did 3 bracketing shots so it could be better if I did 5, however I was doing this in low light and handheld.  ;D
