This was taken at the Great Falls on Potomac river running in between Virginia and Maryland. I shot this from the Maryland side.

This is a HDR merge of three exposures. A lot of curve adjustments and dodging and burning was done, till I liked the contrast and values.

A couple weeks ago I was standing at that exact same spot on the Potomac and also took an HDR shot. Yours is better however as you were there on a better day and your lighting is perfect. A very nice shot. 10

This almost looks like a painting by Winchester. Very nicely captured.
