Good picture. Spooky even, my little possums.

The colour version is... out of this world! HDR, probably. Stunning.

It's very beautiful, but out of this world a little too much? She says she used some kind of photo processing software I hadn't heard of.

I think it's HDR processing, that I linked to inline. (I could be wrong).

Thanks, I didn't notice that link. She wrote, "Had a little special help with photomatix . . ." which apparently is this, linked to from your link:

Good instructions on what HDR means and when to use it:

Good site, thanks. He says he didn't use HDR on any of his gallery photos. Some of them are pretty out-of-this-world spectacular too.

Re: That's a beautiful viaduct! (none / 1)

Not necessarily. The light is very special - and I saw this same effect yesterday with a very low sun. The B/W is eerie because the colour intensities were 'abnormal' - but it could be natural.
