    Thanks again Elaine – glad you like it, I’m always a bit wary of not overdoing it too much when it comes to HDR…thanks for commenting.

    WOW Dan! This is a great HDR! I see your comment above and my first thought was…..now this is a perfect HDR and not so over the top like some of them! Not that I am an expert on HDR but just my honest thoughts! Love this :)

  • Dan Biggins replied

    Wow, thanks so much Shelly – I spent a fair while processing this, trying to find the balance between HDR and a “regular” photo…thrilled you like this, always appreciate your comments :)

    The hefty train fare was worth this alone mate – superb stuff.

  • Dan Biggins replied

    Thanks so much mate – wanted to get one HDR shot, and was lucky to be able to use the tripod in there without maiming anyone!

    Lovely shot… it’s so empty?... :o)

  • Dan Biggins replied

    Thanks Amanda – it’s a combination of long exposure times and luck…10 minutes later around 100 people showed up, so managed to capture this while no-one was around! Thanks for commenting :)

    i forgot to add, did you use a tripod

  • Dan Biggins replied

    I did – taking an HDR shot with 5 exposures combined like this would be impossible without it (well, not impossible but a bit of a mess…!)

  • Lois Romer

    Lois Romer
