1. What do you have to do on the camera to make this type of photo?

Probably outside on the courtyard ? Facing the middle or the fields .

4. Do a google image search for HDR photos and find your favorite, post it on your blog, tell me why you picked that photo and then tell me what techniques (rules of photography) the photographer used

I like how it looks like a painting , its colors look very beatiful . He use the rule of thirds , and had to be really still to get all of the action going on .
