baha'i temple


the only baha'i temple in north america, and i live maybe two miles from it......


i dragged a tripod along, and tried a few hdr shots of it.... it was a nice cloudy day, so i tried to bring the clouds out without making it look too fake..... hdr has that grungy quality that it brings to everything, it didn't really flatter the building, it more just made it look like it was set in one of the lord of the rings movies..... but there it is. i might go back and try reprocessing a few of the hdrs, see if a decent mask and cut layering job will bring the tonal range without the grunge..... so, maybe more to come?
