Interesting try, but you should try to get rid of the grain (better lighting conditions) and maybe a better camera/lens

What settings on a DSLR do you use to get shots like that?, I have a cannon EOS 400D.

It's not about just one set of settings, HDR (in a very simple way) is done by shooting several (at least 3 or more) steady shots with different exposure levels, and then combining them, using post-processing tools.

I have a love/hate relationship with HDR shots. Sometimes they look fantastic, other times the colors look too vivid and cartoonish IMO, unfortunately for me, the latter is my opinion on the pic shared....but thank you for sharing
