Image was produced by utilizing Lightroom (to create 'Virtual Copies' +1, +2, -1, -2/EV) and then pass-off to the Nik Collection's HDR Efex Pro software to build a realistic HDRI-rendering.

One single image, a panorama in this case built with 9 images total, used to make an image that looks – online or in print – more like what the eye sees, NOT the Candy-Land/OVER SATURATED/"grunge" look du jour.

And yes; depending upon the day – the weather – this area can look exactly like what you see here.

* I will have a tutorial posted on my Youtube channel "soon" explaining the process for everyone to experiment with.
