I know, I know, "cooked HDR hell" XD Anyway, besides all that, this is Washington National Cathedral in Washington DC. This is the church with the Darth Vader gargoyle. This is a panoramic stitch single image HDR shot. You will note the super small person on the bottom left next to the lamp post. Yea, this place is HUUUUUUUUGE!
This included a new technique I learned a moment ago that makes a massive difference in the quality of the final image: Unsharp Mask (in filter > sharpen). Learn it, LOVE it!
Wall res available.
What I did: 5 shot panoramic stitch (raw tweaks on each), single image monochromatic HDR with some custom slider play, played with the curves a bit, played with the contrast, added unsharp mask at 300% & 0.2 pixels & 0 threshold.

Hun this looks awesome. The drab color palette goes well with the building's architecture. Very ancient appearance.
