Several passes though Photomatix Tone Mapping to get this effect. May be too much for some, but I like the look of this one.

I love the colours in this. I thought you'd have done a lot better with this shot!

I love this place. I would love to live there. I need to find out where this is. Makes me want to move right in.

interesting shot, but seems as though you may have over-used the shadow/highlights for my personal tastes...and yes I get that you are going for the surreal, but it doesn't go far enough in that direction..I feel like there is some missing element, an odd person/animal to really allow it hit hit me in that surreal way...
you certainly stopped me, and had me thinking about this shot, so kudos to you...

Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning. It's day two now and I'm running late, sorry.

Processing? Strange shot. 6

I like the HDR. I might've panned back just a touch.

processing a little over the top for my tastes. Great detail and good colors.
