View LARGE On Black

View from the top of 'Levant Terril' at Mons in Belgium.

A 'terril' is a hill made from mining waste. There are still a lot of them in the old mining regions like Mons, now being appreciated as green areas.

I've used a ND1000 filter in order to have an 'evening effect' even if the sun was high in the sky.

This is NOT a tone-mapped HDR but a digital blending of 3 exposures. The main exposure was of 30 sec.

This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.
