Similar process as described on the latest Oyster Fisherman upload. Essentially taking an old life-less jpeg and rebuilding it into an HDR powerhouse. This one I played around a bit also with the Dodge and Burn (Aurora HDR) to get the most out of the scene (plus some). You'll probably be able to see the difference between the original Stairway to Heaven in my gallery to this newer version. :) Advances in editing software are really helping amateur photographers like myself get the very most out of every capture. Exciting times for sure!

It's like a night and day difference between the two photos Chris.
Detail is much sharper and contrasts are also more definite.
Your usual excellent use of lines is present in both shots.
Thanks for sharing.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Very interesting image and yes there is a strong difference between the two images. You did a good job on the edits of the whites. Those are really hard to keep from blowing out.

Image is strong, the darkness suits it very well, quite striking and powerful. Excellent.
