This was a six exposure HDR image of sunset over St. John's and its harbor. It was taken from Signal Hill (where the first Trans-Atlantic wireless radio transmission was received).

Ryan,
I would try and sell this to the St. Johns Newfounndland chamber of commerce. This is my type of image. Also one of the better HDR conversions I've seen.

Well done, Ryan. Very nice blend.

I am surprised that there isn't more light on the two FG hills, but still, this is a very beautiful photo. Thanks for posting.

Great HDR, one of the best I've seen. Great job.

Very appealing image. The pleasing lighting and colors add to the mood. Good job with the hdr. Must have been a big difference in latitude from foreground to background. The darker foreground makes the scene appear very natural.

I could have made the foreground lighter, but too much dynamic range on this one made it a little too fake in appearance, although I believe I lost a bit of detail in the foreground when I set it up for the web. I've tried HDRs on several occasions but it sure seems hit and miss to get them to come out well.
