Description
I don't care what the reception for this one is, this is one I'm proud of. Taken at dusk behind the center block of the Canadian Parliament. In view are the Peace Tower, the National Library and...umm, jeez I can't remember which statue that is (to be edited).There are 5 shots here @ ISO200 ranging from 1/20 to 3 second exposure @ f7.1. HDR in CS3 with Tone Mapping in Photomatix. Further touches to curves and brightness again in CS3.
Full view please.
Thanks again.

I think that the pov of this picture is perfect, if it hadent been taken like you did and where you did this would be a much less impressive picture.

I think the blue looks fine. If anything is intensifies the building making it look more majestic. ^^

Thanks. That's my favorite part of the shot too. I love those blue spikes that came out once I got the HDR with the sunset hitting it.

Excellent colors and contrast! How many shots you needed?

5, but on the advice of , I went back and adjusted the light curve and brightness to take away alot of that greyness that seems inherent with HDRs.
