Waleed · 10-30-2007

I've emailed my entry and it bounced back.. I'll try sending it from a different email address..

Note: I don't know if my entry qualifies or not.. It was shot in RAW format and 6 separate photos were produced (-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2), then HDR merged in Photoshop CS3.

Rense · 10-30-2007

And another entry is in the gallery.
Keep them coming.

Rense · 10-31-2007

Rense · 11-01-2007

We have 4 new images in the gallery.
