Amazing shot, Alfie... your HDR work always impresses. Thanks for the article too... a damn fine read! (Makes me think I should try my hand at HDR... never been a huge fan for the exact reasons you express in your article!)

Very good HDR. I love the shafts of light from the sun. The people fishing in a nice touch.

Desating that HDR really made it for me. good job!

Not really desaturated, framefreezer, but run through a black and white conversion similar to the sensitivity/grain/feel of a particular Agfa film I used to shoot.

nice nice and nice... like I always say your HDR is special, just out of question what did the waves look like down in Chiba? I may very well have to do a surfing excursion..

Chiba is a surfer's mecca, mate. My buddy round at my local bar goes there a lot, has a bunch of spare boards too. Think we might all have to go surfing Ch-i-b-a at some point.

Spare boards... Good I just had to sell my custom made board, that I bought with all my pennies saved from my first job, to fund japan (and more camera stuff).. We must go surf Alfie mate, as long as the water is clean...
