Reflections on the Potomac

Reflections on the Potomac
This is a combination of three shots of the same scene to expand the dynamic range. I did it manually, so I don't know whether it can be called "High Dynamic Range" or HDR. The bridge and its reflection are a 30s exposure brightened further in RAW conversion, the middle is a 15s exposure, and the Kennedy Center (the bright horizontal building on the right side) is a 4s exposure.

Toss in some sharpening, a little noise reduction, and a bit of contrast enhancement, and you get this result.

Sharrie Thomas 		  I really enjoy this picture. Very nice
photo!! If you look at it from a different point of view, it reminds me of a reflection in one's eye. Nice gallery.
