Hi Yannick,

I think your composition feels quite simple and balanced but for me this is HDR pushed too far for the technique's sake and not the image. This is just my personal taste but I'm not a fan of the "cartoony" effect of HDR like this. I miss the natural contrast and realism that HDR can enhance but shouldn't overtake (in my opinion). Nice experiment but it falls short for me. I mean no offense and only respectful honesty.

Cheers!

Bonsoir! Tres dramatique!
Looks dramatic. I a sure you played much with shadows/hilights but it was worth while.
The compo's well-balanced with several planes and an attractive perspective.

Hi Yannick,
the HDR is well done, no doubt about that.
The next question is, does it still look natural? It doesn`t look too natural anymore, but I like it as an artistic shot, even though I prefer natural looking HDRs. But in fact I like this one!

Take care
Mark
