Palace of Exhibitions and Congresses - Córdoba, Spain.
I had a great time exploring this city. Not only are the must-see attractions worth visiting, but there is so much more. As I walked around town, I had a great time accidentally stumbling on to cool things and visual tidbits. After photographically experimenting with a scene, I would move on to the next. Every so often I would rediscover the same scene in different light, and would have to work it a bit more with my camera.
This shot captures the Palace of Exhibitions and Congresses on the left, with a tiny bit of the Mezquita on the right. It is an HDR, or high dynamic range photo, meaning that there is a wide range of light values from very dark to very bright. I used specialized software, NIK HDR Effects Pro, to tame these light values and bring them together to enable our eyes to see details in those light and dark areas. I also brought out some of the structure to make it appear very sharp.
