Humber Bridge, 2hrs pre dawn to just after dawn.
Stacked and striped to get a small section of each image.
Obviously the sequence goes from right to left.
OK so some commenters have asked for a 'how to' guide:
There are about 8 staked images here, each taken about 15mins apart from a static tripod. I arrived well before dawn and stayed until just after sun up, and shot every few minutes. I bracketed each image so ended up with about 200 images to choose from.
Having selected the 8 or so images I wanted to use I opened each image as a smart object in PS3. In effect I had 8 seperate images stacked one on top of the other.
The next stage was to turn off the view of all but the bottom two images and then to add a layer mask to the second image. Using a soft brush paint in black on the layer mask to reveal the lower image.
Next copy the layer mask up onto the third layer and broaden the masked area to reveal another slice of the lower two images.
Repeat for each layer
Once all layers have been masked down then its simply a case of using curves to smooth the colour transitions

great shot Keith, you should have let me known you was around, I'd have bought you a pint in County Pub at the bottom of the bridge- only live 5 mins away ;-)
Congrats on the placing and score Keith, it was a fun week but guess in the end the strongest player won ;) Am looking forward to some tips in the spring :)
Lovely deep tones. Well composed. Day turning to night (I figured it out in the end :-)). I was getting a little concerned that I could find the subject in 3-5 different positions and I'm so glad I couldn't, nice to see something unique.
This is cool! The street lights on the bridge are really interesting, the way they go from off to on to brighter and brighter. Nice composition and color. good job combining the images.
