incredible shot decimal, is that HDR? Where is it?

Thanks, it's somewhere in Wexford. My friend drove me there last week about 9 or 10 o' clock at night. It's HDR, it was very dark so I didn't get very good detail, HDR gave me the best results.

I just wish I knew how to get there again!

One of those 'bonus shots' you get with film. Just snapping away to finish out a roll and not really caring...then it turns out my favourite from the roll.
Olympus Trip 35, fuji film and absolutely zero PP. Straight from the can.

Well...it's been a while.I took a long break from photography that lasted nearly 3 months,all due to a major lack of inspiration.I eventually got the camera out again while I was over in Scotland for the Leinster match and took a couple of shots.Hopefully I won't be that long away from the camera again You wouldn't realise how much you miss photography.

@RB is that Egypt shot from Karnak? I preferred there to Cairo when I went.

Indeed it is from Karnak and fully agree, much preferred the Luxor region to Cairo. Don't plan on ever returning to Cairo, however it *could* be a good spot if you like street photography I suppose!

Ah, I must visit it sometime, I thought it might have been a flooded quarry outside Bunclody.

(Flickr seems to posterise the blue gradient for some reason - even on the large image. The original has a seamless mild vignette straight out of camera.)

Just back from South West France. Took over 2000 photos

Here is my first attempt at HDR. This is the Cathédrale Saint-Étienne in Cahors. Tried to avoid that unrealistic HDR painterly look.

^^ Very nice Tzetze ^^
But maybe a little less saturation, and get rid of the 'dirty' white weed in the right corner of the pic. It looks like a fabulous location !
