Hiho. No photoshop is used. This is a HDR image which is made of several different exposures using a HDR prg. The look you get from HDR is abit special and in this case gave abit to unnatural look to the image. I was about to remove it but the image has some good in it for still.. so ill keep it up. =)
Thanks though for the offer to help! Always welcome.
Regards,
Patrick

I think you had too heavy a hand on the dodging and burning. If you are using photoshop, I'd be happy to share my own technique for this.

Hi there Hugo =) Long time no see. HDR has its advantages and its bad sides. I agree with both the halos and the fringing (in the branches of the tree). I liked the exact same thing as you did and that made me wanna atleast post it here to hear peoples thoughts about it. Im glad that you are honest as usual as fake comments (especially the good ones) sure doesnt help. Have a nice weekend and may the good light be with you.. always!
Regards,
Patrick J

Hey Patrick!
nice of you to show your face around here again (Says who? I haven't been on UF in almost 3 months myself)
I do like the emptiness in this shot, but looking at the halos in the sky, it seems a bit over processed; The HDR works well in recreating the details and brightness in the (presumably) shadowy alley. Nice comp, too, with the path leading away from the difficult areas, too. You do have a bit of fringing around the right side of the image too; or so it seems.
It's the tree, and the tonal range in the wall on the right and the lower parts of the houses on the left that attract my attention; nice, too with the patch of light on the yellow house in the distance, drawing the viewers' eye into the image.
Cheers,
Hugo
