Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: I am the Walrus (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Nikon D610
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5 ED-IF
Location: New Brighton, England
Date: Jun 24, 2015
Date Uploaded: Jun 25, 2015

 HDR from 3 jpegs in Photomattix
Then finished off in PS. No plug-in filters used because I've lost them all after updating to Arsoles Adobe cc 2015!

----------------------------------------
Since posting the above (about PS cc 2015) I have discovered that I can access my Nik plugins through Lightroom. Simply right-click an image while in develop mode, select 'Edit In' and there are the Nik fx plug-ins.

Thanks for the great comments and votes. I keep telling myself not to go back to this location but on this occasion the challenge actually called for it.

Going to be hard to beat this one David, even though it's not my fave genre I can tell a good landscape shot from a bad one :)

Wowza! That really pops when it opens up on the screen. Best part is the groupe of wee little people out there way beyond the lighthouse.
