This one didn't have moving cars to worry about -- Also three bracketed shots hand-held...

Interesting architecture, to say the least. However, the appearance is a tad harsh and unrealistic. If that is the look you were trying to achieve, you did well.

Yes. That is what I was trying to achieve. Here's the mid exposure for comparison. I though it needed "perking" up...

I love the slightly surreal look - after all, anyone willing to live in that kind of humanity-packed mini-space has to be a bit out of normal

I would prefer to have the sky show a bit less of the effect, so as not to compete, but love the buildings with the millions of windows and stories behind them.

I don't usually "cook" shots with tonemapping, for my real estate agent clients, but this was just for me... We were showing our buyer client a studio condominium unit on the 17 floor with a wonderful view of Lake Michigan. $250,000 for a one room with bath!

And no doubt a hefty monthly condo assoc. fee? Ah, but it's the location that matters!

Hi, Mallen,
I think the "punch-up" of this image was very effective!
