It's a striking image. As mentioned, also unreal looking ("painting", "staged-set", "I would not have believed this"). That is my main concern/problem with a lot of HDR images. Sorry, I just needed to get that out of my system. Anyway, as I said, a striking image!

The Day After feeling ... Lots of foreboding atmosphere. Really great

Thanks Lydia and Mary Anne. This is just an HDR without any other photoshop effects. I took daytime pictures of this place, but they all look boring. Then once a year, the mission allows people to come here after dark for Christmas celebration. I took advantage of it and got the kind of colors I wanted.

It looks almost like a painting or a stage set. How did you get this effect?

Very cool, Dylan... And the subject is very metal, too. I like your processing style. ~Lydia
