I was gonna call this 'cathedral' or something like that, but I figured the Gothic nature of it and the ominous processing demanded a dramatic name, so 'judgement seemed' appropriate. The strong sepia toning is a result of the sepia challenge, even though this was an outtake from the silhouette challenge that I didn't enter because I misunderstood the term silhouette :)

HDR image from 5 exposures.
After photomatix, I probably hit it up with some topaz detail and adjust. Cloned some spots away. Silver efex pro. Sepia. Touch of vignettes. Probably some lightroom settings. Export. Voila.

Six of my last seven entries have been with my wide angle lens. I think I need to rest it for a bit after this, although it is pulling in good scores...
I doubt this'll come near my last free study entry that got 6.26, but I'd be happy if it came closer to 6 than 5.
