Is this too over the top?

The overall exposure looks very natural to me Tom.

The perspective however, is straight out of a Friday-night bender! :lol:

I think the exposure looks good, but the colors look fake or over-processed to me. Maybe its the saturation.

I agree. It's very CGI looking. HDR done this way is the equivalent of a velvet painting. Some people like velvet paintings. Some people think people who like velvet paintings have no taste.


Please proceed, Governor.
