The Square by egad

The Square

My husband, son and I visit this area quite frequently, and some time back in the summer my husband suggested that I take a photo of it for this project. I told him that I thought it was a great idea and wanted to save the shot until it was decorated for the holidays. Well, we went out to dinner tonight, so I grabbed my camera and took a few long exposure shots. Unfortunately, there was not a lot of traffic when we got there, so there were not as many light trails as I had hoped I would capture. However, I do like the shot and am always happy when my husband gets involved and makes suggestions.

I also posted a version of this shot for the Yousef Karsh artist challenge.

@aspada It is!
@carrapeta00 No, it is a single shot that is processed in Photomatix using the tone mapping feature. The effect is very similiar. Thanks for the kind words and the follow. :)
@pwallis Thanks Paula. It is tone mapped in Photomatix and then I tweaked it until I liked the look.
