Beautiful, especially the top one. You have thousands of square miles of open space, and still traffic jams - modern society.

Very nicely done. Was this done with three bracketed exposures or a single RAW exposure?

Interesting how much detail can be brought out in a back- lit scene.

This is what HDR should look like :thumbup:
Just my humble opinion. Very nice!

Very Nice...I especially like the reflections off the cars of the sun !!! Like little repeating patterns. To see these one must look at the download.

Did you do any PP and if yes, care to expand on the process.

Willie, sure - my usual process

Convert RAWs to 16-bit TIFFs in DxO Optics Pro to remove any lens distortion, straighten verticals (perspective) and remove any chromatic aberration.
Process the 16-bit TIFFs in Photomatix Pro, pretty sure this one used the Interior 2 pre-set with some very minor slider tweaks.
Process the HDR image in PS CC, used Topaz Detail to sharpen (Light preset), and Topaz Clarity (Natural 3 preset) to pull a little more detail out of shadows.

I am a little late to the show, but I must say you have done an excellent job with this image. Excellent application of HDR.
