my eye seems to be drawn more to the sky than the buildings in the foreground which is where i think they should go, but still the shot is too fantastic not to save

best use of an overused tool (HDR) i've seen
i looked at the large size and didn't see anything bad right off
so i vote

Fred [feukiou] [deleted] says:

it's a pure shit like all HDR pictures. Your subject is dull and it's not 9/11.
Anyway, my gandma likes it when she looks at the post calendar in her toilets, which happens quite often.

Automatt says:

Aprevit, your deleteme comments are as boring as your photos.
If you're going to shoot down a shot like this, at least put some thought into it.
Then you can go back to taking snapshots of your cat.

xdrei did say it really well, actually. and really, "quite acceptable" is the nicest thing i have ever heard him say.

in any case, this is very nicely done.

Thank you to everyone who commented, faved, and voted!

My first photo into the safe? Could this be true?
17 attempts over about 12 months.

I would have saved. Now I want to get an 11mm lens and climb tall buildings.
Posted 41 months ago. ( permalink )

Fred [feukiou] [deleted] says:

tss tss Kids, take it easy.
don't apologize for making fun of aprevit stream: everybody does.

anyway: congrats for putting a HDR in the safe, I've seen the flaws (AF? move?) but the wide angle definitly makes it.
I need a 10-20.
Posted 41 months ago. ( permalink )

Automatt says:

Thanks Schizoo, glad to have gotten one in finally. Wish I could have been in Paris last week! I long to make gaudy HDR photos of everything. I'm positive I could do better than last time.

Now, I need a fisheye =)

olya says:

wow, some of the deleteme ppl are on crack :D
excellent photograph. i really honestly don't see why someone has a problem with the hdr - you can't win, its either "not good enough for hdr but great as regular" or "overdone hdr". looks vibrant, natural, and not overdone, but just excellent.
