a street in Nicosia

late afternoon in December and students make for the cafés after college

The medium telephoto focal length has compressed the street scene very nicely and I like the way they are walking toward the light. Nice street shot Geof.

I cant bring my self to suggest this should have been a HDR as 99.9% of HDR images look a freaking mess. but this would have benefited from bracketing shots and blending them in post to reduce the extreme contrast.

can i ask what kit and settings where used? and for an outline of what was done in post?

I always like to give a positive so i do like the way the shot makes me wonder where the road leads
