I would of gone with a tighter crop, the extra concrete in the foreground takes up a lot of space. Adding the cloud was nice but in my book it change this from a photo to an illustration. I would like to see the photomatix output with the micro contrast and black point bumped up a bit for comparison purposes.

nice job fixing the the ghosting on the wee one

Nah but I sure wish I was on holiday everyday I bought a property out by the beach in Rincon which is 30 miles North of where I was born Mayaguez.

I have family all over the place so I travel from home NJ to Home 2 PR and everywhere else in the Caribbean I usually go on a cruise ship every year with the wife.

That's where I got the nickname Provo from the Turks & Caicos Island of providenciales aka Provo.

What's the prob you are having with photomatix? I use both version 3 and the latest 4.0.2 the reason I still use version 3 is because sometimes I find it gives me more detail even though is a previous version.

I had my three exposures and imported them into Photomatix and played around and all it looks like the program has done is boosted saturation. Nothing that says HDR. I am going to play some more today and will try to take some screen shots to show you what I mean.

It would be nice if you could post the three images as large as you can here and let some of us have a go at it.

quick edit with (obviously) no attempts at reducing the ghosting
