Truly HDR, but so bright it is a bit painful to look at IMHO

Intriguing photo. Smokin as in the habit, or as in "hot"? Both, I guess. Great subject for B&W. Good shadows and highlights. Tonal varitaion throughout.

Shame about that big ugly shadow across her face.

I am not sure this is an HDR shot. I dont see anything but a snapshot and in reality it hurts my eyes to look at it due to the relfections and the lack of focus. Keep shooting and entering, listen to the comments you get and learn. Good luck.

diffuser my friend, diffuser. HDR is still going to have a hard time fixing those specular highlights. also, try to think of a main subject to create within the chaos. nothing stands out here.

I definetly don't agree with the voting average on this. Was a 'outside the box' image and nice colors and definetly made you ponder pic longer than just click view go on...

I thought it was a cool image and that you handled it well. One of shots that make me think, "Wish I'd thought of that".

Very well composed and a good idea. I have some goldware too and have tried to capture shots with them - very tricky - they reflect so much light (or anything else within 150 feet!!). Overall nicely done.

Fine complimentary colors here. Cool perspective on the train. The sky has such a lovely blue that my eyes would like to see a bit more of it in the pick. Looks like you had challenging lighting conditions that left you a little bit of bright blow-out and then shadows on the front of the train. IMO a little tighter focus and maybe a little more crop off the bottom might have improved the shot a bit.
