Description
Some unfinished and forgotten temple in my grandma's village - Stefan Karadja ~80 km alway from Varna (Bulgaria).It sort of... represents the state of the religion in my country - solid and massive outside but hollow inside.
Really sad.
HDR from 3 RAWs.

What a shame for such a beautiful building to go to waste. All that effort... It really is sad.

So much hard work and skill gone to waste! Beautiful architecture is so rare these days - to leave it undone seems criminal. The gloomy sky fits nicely.

usually not a fan of HDR, but this one has enough contrast that it works very well

It is HDR which stand for High Dynamic Range image. Usually the way to achieve it is by combining 3 or more frames taken at different exposure.
There are a lot of tutorials in Deviantart about HDR which will help you understand how to achieve such effects.
Take a look at that: [link] a little hint for you how I did it.

You should use the autobracketing function of your DSLR camera if it has it. When the autobracketing function of your camera is on it will take 3 or more shots rapidly each with different exposure. Then you will have to use some software to combine them. The software of my choice is Photomatix.
