I love this. How did you manage to shoot without a thousand people wandering about? Really a gorgeous place and your capture here really shows it off well. Excellent composition, and nice post processing to make it shine.

Great purposed dynamic range. Someday I hope to learn WHEN to use hdr because it works so well when done right (and looks aweful on 99% of my subjects). Anyway, very nicely done.
