I know 50% of people hate an HDRI with a passion, so here's an HDRI processed photo for 50% of you.

I like the other half! Sorted!

Might just be my monitor, but it all looks a bit dark? Particularly the foreground? I'd also have said there wasn't enough foreground, but that might just be me?

As always with your shots though Jimmy, its the sky that draws me into them!

I think the HDRI has obviously done the trick with the sky, but it's not done much for the foreground. And' you've got some of that ugly 'glow' along the horizon and around the building that often happens with HDR.

You know I'm a fan of HDR, and of the Jimmy Effect!

However, this looks a little over-processed for me, plus it looks like a composite of a different sky? The cloud formation near the horizon looks... 'shopped

With my meteorological hat on, I'm fairly content that its the correct sky, however - apart from the bright blue in the middle, and the clout tops in the distance, the sky is too dark?

Jimmy, would you be willing to post the individual images used in the composite?
