Hello
Attached is a pic of the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philly using 3 exposures.
Created the HDR using Aurora 19 and final Post in ON1.
People I've shown it have liked it, however to me it looks a little fake?
Can't put my finger on it.
Getting the detail on the Girders and bringing them out of the Shadows took some boost of a few areas.
Thoughts on what might be overdone?
Thanks
Jim

A great use of HDR, nothing over cooked here.

I like this image a lot! The Z6 is certainly capable of producing stunning results in the right hands.

Jim, your work is excellent, but being you asked, yes it is just a tad overdone.

Beautiful!
I think the colors look a little flat- metallic. But that might be just my taste.

I think what you’re seeing that looks “fake” is the sun is behind the bridge, yet the bridge looks well lit up. Maybe if the bridge was a touch darker?
But yes, so much HDR is overdone, and to these tired old eyes looks awful. This shot looks really nice.

It looks beautiful. Rarely do I say, "WOW" when looking at a photo, but I did in this case. Really gorgeous!. I would, however, have straightened the buildings and bridge support in the lower right-hand corner of the photo. Just a thought.

Wonderful capture of a beautiful bridge. I like your HDR processing as well. Thanks for sharing.

Nicely done - I like it a lot! I think you have a good handle on HDR photography.

Like it. To me, beyond the lower part of the bridge looks too light. Too bad it couldn't be darkened
just a bit. However, nice job.

It's very nice, but maybe the underside of the bridge is too bright (and yellow) to match with the overall lighting. I would also correct the perspective and make the bridge towers vertical, but that's me.

[quote=It does look as if it is leaning over and getting ready to topple.
The nearest support tower looks to be straight with the world, but the distant one leans. Now, how can that be fixed? (Just curious.)
