I love the horizon here as well

Hong Kong Twilight 2 - HDR by Mark Austria.

I just couldn't resist giving it the HDR version. If you missed the first one, here's the DRI version. These are the only two shots I took from the Peak and better post them as boy it was really packed with people up there. Had to squeeze in and take these shots with the hopes that no one bumps my tripod.

i prefer the hdr version mark! the lightings are more outstanding! & has better composition! good work!
Posted 18 months ago. ( permalink )

Mark Austria says:

- you're really right on Artie. this was my second shot and had made adjustments on the first one composition wise. the first one was all about testing and seeing if i'd succeed with a decent shot, as I told you it was really packed up there.

The view from Victoria Peak is amazing! We took our Mum to HK for her 60th and had a meal in a restaurant at the Peak. It was so cloudy at first and we couldn't see a thing from our window seat. Half way through the night, the clouds cleared and we saw this fantastic view. A man made wonder! Great shot!
