Hi Alan,
as Andy said "a joy to view". It always amazes me how you manage to achieve these results in HDR. Mine never quite look the same. Do you have a pre-set memory saved on your program from which you work? None the less a great result.
My only slight crit is the figure in a high viz jacket, which to me stands out too much against the grey of the building.

Hi Phil,

Thanks for the feed back.

I used to save presets in the HDR software, but each picture came out differently. So now I adjust each picture individually. I have documented my work flow on my site if you are interested.

Thank Alan,
an interesting read. What HDR program is your preference? I use Photomatix

This is amazing..your work as said by the others is a joy, and is a credit to you, along with total inspiration to get out there and try HDR.
Thanks for the link, very interesting and informative.
