This Took Hours....

This HDR shot took hours; pushed for time, this is the best I can do. Processing, merging, different settings, selecting the best...this is the one.

Your hard work paid off! This is so interesting to study. It gives the sensation of looking up and feeling a vertigo effect--seeing double.

@cejaanderson This site is only a block from my building; I'd planned on shooting it soon, but didn't know it was going to be that day. The movement blur is just that: the crane was being used while I was shooting it. Had I waited until Tomorrow I could have gotten some good HDR bracketed shots without movement, but, oh well.
It took so long because I took 5 shots. Processed all 5, then thought only 4 were appropriate, then thought I ought to see how it turns out with just 3. Running 3, then 4, then 5, through the HDR software, as JPGs, then PNGs then TIFs...then deciding what looked best.
Next HDR shoot- JPGs, No Ghost Removal, Yes Noise Removal. I think I have had the best results twice now with those settings.
TMI, huh?
