Fantastic, and it does work better in mono then in colour anyway!
Adrian Carmody
Good Stuff
I’m not always a fan of some HDR which borders on “hyper” reality. This shot shows the best use of an extended dynamic range… bringing out the details in the shadows without blowing the highlights

Alf Caruana

Dan Biggins
I’m with Adrian – some HDR is a little over the top for me, but this is perfect. Great shot
Steve Chapple
This has worked so well. Reduced much of that yellowness I got in mine. The B&W has brought out so much detail.
Joanne Bradley

even better viewed LARGER , did you tone map the image?
Shane Smart replied 26 days ago
Thanks Philip. I often use Photomatix to combine and tonemap, but I then use Photoshop to bring back closer to the middle exposure.

There are a few very good HDR practitioners on RB, now I think you might also be one of them. Not a devotee of HDR however you are beginning to convert me! Very well executed. Well done.
