Kudos on the HDR. HDR done correctly, in my opinion, is indistinguishable. If I look at a photo and I can tell it's HDR it has failed. Well done, Michael.

Beautiful image. It hurts to see that house in such a state. It may be HDR, but it doesn't "seem" to have the cartoonish effects; nice work.

I did not count exactly, but it is interesting to me how many transitions have to do with either "civilization" encroaching on nature, or are urban decay type scenes.

I nearly feel sorry for this lovely blue building: it looks so sad, weary, run-down...

You did well to capture the scene and the post is appreciated, Michael. Kind regards Nico
