Default This Castle was crying out HDR me, PLease!!!!

Been playing with HDR for a while now and I think I have finally cracked it. This is Penrhyn castle, in North Wales. It was crying out to be HDR'd not a lover of over done HDR myself but I thought this looked just great. Hope you like it.

Very nice capture Tryfan. Love the detail in the castle and the lovely green of the grass. Great work with the HDR.

Jake.

I think you have used just the right amount to bring out the beauty of the site. Is it an optical illusion or is the left side of the castle leaning in the 1st shot..... Well done

Clearly it was...crying out for this processing. It must be smiling now, though. Very nice work!
