Sometimes some shots you don't think are all that great just take on a life you never expected. This was one. I was processing it as I posted the first shot from the Ottawa River shoot. Forgot it was processing (got lost looking at y'all's streams!) and just as I was about to shut down for the night realized it was waiting to be tonemapped.
So I said, "oops" and proceeded to tonemap it.
That's when I went, "Oh wow!"
Hope you like it.
This one MUST be seen in Large On Black. Particularly the mid-ground looks so cool and soft-focused because of the HDR processing.
Ottawa at dusk, view of Parliament Hill, taken from the bridge to Gatineau (formerly known as Hull).
Sorry about the piece of wooden railing at the bottom left corner, I was too lazy to clone it out.

La Machine made its North American debut from July 27 to 30 on the streets of downtown Ottawa. The show, created by a French theatre production company, is called "The Spirit of the Dragon-Horse, The Stolen Wings."
It features Long Ma, who has the body of a horse and the head of a dragon, stands 12 metres tall, and can breathe fire, and Kumo, a spider who is about 20 metres long when fully outstretched. The two creatures have an Ottawa backstory for the show.
“We found out that as we were excavating the tunnel in the LRT, workers saw some giant spider webs, then scientists did a bit of research and found some fossil arachnid eggs and they also found some bones from a prehistoric species of dinosaur that seems to be associated with a dragon,” Laflamme said.
Part of the appeal of La Machine, is that spectators are able to get very close to the creatures. There will be no barriers cordoning off the viewing area, instead a group of people will form a security blockade known as “la patate” that will make sure people are not under foot when the machines move.
