 After a long day, waiting for the sunset that never came. Clouds were in the way.
I thought I'd give HDR processing a try and see how it does in a challenge...
Processed my RAW file to HDR in Photomatix, cropped and straightened it, adjusted the brightness and contrast, cloned out a hotspot, dodged-burned, sharpened, and reburned a bit, then resized and saved for web.
Yes, the warf is crooked!

That looks like a great spot to relax.

Something about the edges is making it look 'copy and paste' to me (but I know it's not). I like the composition and colors.

I love this shot. Very Well done. Upstate NY or is it Maine? Makes me wish I was there. 10

Very nice composition but looks oversaturated

Very nice, but I think it is overprocessed in the upper right hand corner. Shame because that detracts from a nice image. It also looks a little soft to me.
