Yaay—got published by the BBC! (again)

I was really pleased that one of my photos has been published by the BBC on their In Pictures site.

I submitted it for their Time theme—mine's the graceful old ladies of the sea shot.

If you've been following me for a while, you'll also know that the BBC featured me and my Urban Decay, Lost Spaces and Urban Ugliness photo essay on their website.

Congratulations! The "graceful old ladies" was the best by far of the entries. There was so much detail...really a beautiful shot.

Mark...Congrats! How could this beautiful photo NOT get published!

Thanks for the comment on the blown highlights on my blog. I am struggling with this issue when I try HDR. I think I either need more than a 2 stop down of exposure or go to 5 shots with incremental 1 stops. Still trying!

Thanks everyone for your congrats, it's really appreciated, my fine followers!

@DustyLens: You and the BBC have the same tastes!

@Dan: Thanks Dan :) I know what u mean about blown highlights and HDR. I don't use Photomatix so not sure how you deal with it there.

Once or twice where it's been a real problem for me, I've pulled in the original (non-HDR version converted to bw) as a separate layer, and "revealed" those parts where the sky is blown. You may need to increase the contrast on the original a little first.
