This is an experimental image for me… it’s comprised of 18 images shot at differing ISO’s and exposures using 6 sets of three bracketed images on my Canon 5D MK II. My HDR’s are normally comprised of three shots- so this is quite a departure from my normal process, and it yielded an interesting and intense result.

The composition is edited in Aperture with the Photomatix plugin. The clouds are influenced by the distant hurricane Irene, over 200 miles away. This shot is taken at the edge of Miami, Florida, looking out over Everglades National Park. I hope you enjoy it!
