"Niagara HDR for Thorston" (52)

This is for Thorsten who posted a GRAND pic of Niagara Falls in HDR yesterday, so he got me motivated to scrape up some RAW photos of when Silke and I were there last year and this is the result. I still do not understand tone mapping, so you geniuses out there can help me with it.

I was so impressed with his shot of the Falls and I really love processing so I had to give it a whirl! I also added vignetting and a bloom, right at the edge of the falls!
I love the little footprints leading to the water, hope the little fella made it back.
The only thing I don't like much about HDR is that with all the processing your EXIF data is lost...or maybe I can pull it from the RAW File....lemme see... well, it won't let me highlight and save! Anyone know why? That is annoying! But I filled in the shutter speeds and FStop. Focal Length was 24mm.

Thanks and have a great day!
