I usually shy away from using HDR. I’m not really a fan. However I do think some shots are worth the effort so to speak. This is a shot I took in Sweden a few weeks ago. I love the bikes and, the signs on this hut. I’ll leave you to use Google translate to find the meanings. Happy hunting.

Construction of this Canadian national historic site began in 1823 and today nearly 200 years later, the Notre-Dame Basilica, located in Old Montreal is a much venerated and constantly busy historic landmark dedicated to Mother Mary that is an architectural marvel

Canon 80D, 18-55mm lens
f4.0; ISO 800; 1/3200sec

In July, my family and I spent a few days in St. Petersburg, Russia.  This is the Kazan Cathedral, a functional Russian Orthodox Church styled after St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome. I tried to go for a unique angle and was lucky enough to catch a plane in the background; an interesting juxtaposition of historical architecture and modern technology!
