Unloved canal boat

I don't normal do HDR (because I'm bad at it) but had a go on today shoot and I think it's come out OK. Well it's in better shape than this poor boat.

Like that Mark is it in Adlington I can see Rivvy hill in the background, we had a narrow boat on fire and sinking the other night missed the fire engines going past my house

Cheers Dave

Yes it's at Adlington I only had an hour walk with my dad today, so I little trip along the tow-path.

Saw a fire engine pass on they way home , thought about getting the car and following it, but did not.

thats funky, can you try it in HDR b&w!!

I like this one, the processing works well on the image. The boat sure has seen better days hasn't it.....

As I say I don't really do HDR, is there another technique or do you mean just convert the above image.

I am intrigued - where can Rivington Hill be seen in the background? I can't see any sign of a hill!

No I could not see the hill either, I wonder if Dave meant he CAN'T see the hill as he would have expected.

well it doesn't scream HDR so that's a good thing
lovely detail in the boat
like it!

Its a well balanced shot but from a personal point of view the actual HDR is obvious and a bit overdone

Its one of those shots where youre like, is it, isnt it? HDR that is. Props.
