Berkeley hills at sunset. This was a difficult exposure and I timed it to just barely blow out the highlights in the upper left, and this allowed me to capture some detail in the shadows. I added some noticable vibrance to it because I think it gives it a surreal feeling.

This works well. The HDR is subtle enough to be enhancing whereas some people tend to overdo it. Very good shot, understated and atmospheric.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

Works big time. Great moody evocation.

You did very well with this. I like that dark feeling in the picture.
