Valletta skyline HDR captured at the end of the February Flickristi meeting. This is the city where I spend my working life. This was tonemapped to balance the shadows at the lower end of the frame. The gorgeous colours and clouds looked that gorgeous in real life. No added sugar.
I'm a bit absent from your streams at the moment. Work schedule is draining me but I'll be back. I'm so happy you've pushed this into Explore regardless of my absence.
