This image was taken today about 18:00 or 6:00pm. It's winter at it's best here, so the Jyväsjärvi lake has frozen and you can walk on it, so I decided to go take some picture on the ice. This is the Kuokkala bridge, which in winter time is lighted quite nicely. I used HDR technique for this pic, 'cause I thought it would give a nice touch to it with all the light.

I'm glad you described what that was. I wasn't sure at first look. Nice way to make the best of a cold day.

You've done a good job. I'm not a big fan of HDR methods (normally) because i feel it is being over-used on many daytime landscape pictures that I see in Caedes and it can easily make the image look fake / cartoon-like. But I think for your shot it was a very good application of HDR. The subject matter is artificially lit and at night-time (which I think is where HDR is most useful), which extends the luminescence range in line with what the human eye could interpret naturally.
Also the natural continuation of the line of the bridge from the front/top to the back of the picture draws the eye well.
Happy snapping !!

Hard work never killed anybody, but why take a chance?
