    Default Last of 3 shots of Skyline Bridge at sunrise

    This is another hdr effort - run through Photomatix Pro. After importing the images I used tonemapping.

    D3X with 24-120 at 98 mm, iso 100. f/22 - shutter speeds were 1/5, 1/10, 1/20, 1/40, and 1/80

    I like this one the best Allan. Just because it is different than most images made from here. The suns rays puts this one over the top for me. And the line of light stretching across the sky is a plus. Rich color up top and the muted bottom reflection draws me right to the sky scene, as it should, at least to me. Well seen and captured.

    Allan,

    Nice work. Looks very natural. Composition works well for the bridge position relative to the light rays. I like the overall cold tone look with the light rays, golden clouds and gold reflections on the water being the predominate warm tone.

    Love the rays in this one Allan. As Robert said, it looks natural and not "tonemapped" as some images processed this way can get a distinct look to them which some love and some hate.

    Maybe it's just me and a perception created (I didn't take it into PS to check the leveling) but it seems it might benefit from a slight CW rotation as the lines of the clouds and the horizon line seem to slope gently upward from L to R? Maybe it's the bridge fuddling with my mind?
