Default HDR - Singapore by night

Singapore by Night

This is a HDR with a single RAW file. The regular image was just boring and i wanted to trash it. But after HDR, i really like it

Very nice shot Kunal. I really like the colors and the detail. Looks like it was a good shot to begin with!
WHat program did you use....this came out terrific for a single RAW file.

That's beautiful, Kunal. I love what you did with the colors, and the starburst appearance of the streetlights is a nice touch.

I really love how this turned out, Kunal. HDR shots often look too fake for my taste, but this one is vibrant, yet realistic. I love the sky especially! Nice job.

Yeah this image look awesome large. I used photomatix pro for HDR, then a touch of lucisart and sharpened a bit in lab mode.

Yeah it was shot soon after sunset and a 15sec exposure. So it brought out those colours in the sky
