Default HDR Processed Image of Steam Whistle Brewery.

I was out Sunday shooting after buying my 'new' 50mm f/1.7 lens for my A-200 camera.

This is a shot of the Steam Whistle Brewery in Toronto near the harbourfront and right by the CN Tower.

Just wanting some criticism on it and comments if you would. This would be my first realy processed HDR image but there will be more to come. I did it with using my Bracketing feature on my camera (which only does +/- 0.7).

Thanks for looking.

Well its a nice real look HDR, If only you got the whole 2 buildings then It will look better. Judging from the image, it will make an excellent tilt-shift, just need to emphasize in the middle part of image.

Thanks, that is exactly what my friend said about the buildings... I was on a balcony and I was playing with the new 50mm so I could not really back up lol.. Could have raised the shot but I took what I took.. Something I will try and look out for more next time.

I think cutting off the tops of the buildings created a lot of distraction here. There isn't a whole lot going on with the foreground of the image. I find the three buildings the most powerful compositional force in the image. Next time I would point the camera up or raise it to get all three buildings in the frame. It looks like they were pretty close to being in the frame so I don't think you would have had much trouble getting all three in the frame.

Processing wise I think you did an excellent job keeping it look realistic nice work.
