Penshaw Monument @ Sunset II

Last year after the Sunderland Airshow we took a trip up to Penshaw Monument, just outside Sunderland, and got some shots of it in the late afternoon - www.jimmylemon.co.uk/index.php?showimage=72. This year we hung around and waited for a full blown sunset. I am glad we did as I really like this shot. The processing isn't going to be many people's taste, however. Update: Added to the www.flickr.com/groups/dpexperience/ group as part of "International HDR Day" 2010
