Following a tutorial, but mainly some advice from boremachine ( thanks chris), i learned how to do some hdr, using photomatix, and cs4 and many many many layers! lol. hope you like it.
You gave this image an old world charm or at least added to its charm. What a wonderful piece of work. Worth all the efforts you employed. Is CS4 much better than CS3? Is there a name for the technique that Chris showed you? I wouldn't be asking these questions if I weren't impressed with the outcome of your image above. ;0)
Good experiment in HDR Ms Jan, looks totally natural. I like the deep colours and the rich sky. Perspective is slightly off at either side but that is soooo hard to get right as I know from trying to photograph buildings in London.
