Description
Well, one has to try at one point or another

This is my first attempt at a semi-decent HDR shot. Taken from our balcony in Haifa (Nesher), with the Mediterranean visible in the distance.

I will try again some time with a better subject, but I still hope you enjoy

Technical details:
- 5 shots with different exposure.
- Camera not on tripod, but held down firmly on edge of ballustrade.
- Used photomatix to put the HDR together.

PS: For those wondering what that green triangular thing is on the right hand side of the picture, well... they have this thing here in Israel, they take ugly objects (like power cable masts, in this case) and illuminate them in bright green (or purple), so that people can still behold them at night. Don't ask me why.

Edit: I removed the ugly bright orange glow from the streetlights, by merging two HDR images together in photoshop. Looks better like this, I think.
