    Wow, an amazing piece. Well shot too Andy. You could have some fun shooting that. Is it a commemorative piece of some kind? Really like it,

        I normally hate HDR images with a passion, but it kind of works here, giving a surreal, fantasy art effect (which I reckon was your aim)

        Technically, there are a few dotted lines in the sky (top) that distract, and a number of blown white areas in the sky.
        Concentrate on equipment and you'll take technically good photographs. Concentrate on seeing the light's magic colours and your images will stir the soul. - Jack Dykinga
        Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography- George Eastman

                Very unusual structure well done

                I doubt that photoshop could do anything to straighten those angles out

                        Beautifully composed image and a wonderful subject, but whilst I can see and admire the skill taken in processing it I do have to declare that I'm not a great fan of HDR; just a bit too artificial for me.
                        I'm intrigued as to where the dashed lines (top and left hand side) could have come from - I'm guessing construction of the border rather than the image itself?

                            The dashed lines are my faulty editing, unfortunately.

                              I like that, an unusual and interesting image with good processing.
