*mavenimagery's first completed (publish ready) image ever to be posted on Flickr.
Workflow: The image www.flickr.com/photos/maven_imagery/5300759391/in/photost... was 16-bit RAW image.
For a 3D effect processed seperately in IRET (First Pass). Then combined with the 3 bracketed EV's which were tone mapped in Photomatix.
Tone mapped image combined with the image below and post processed in IRET (Second Pass). Time: 7 hrs 48min.
If you have a monitor at least with 1000:1 Contrast ratio (not to be confused with the 20.000-5 million Dynamic contrast ratio questionably marketed monitors. Ask for more on this subject if interested) this image should look OK and serve the purpose. Simple math: think of 200.000:1 as opposed to standard max 500:1 and above the standards 1000:1, which is the only budget monitor available in the market.
If this is what we get at 1000:1, and a plasma screen is only marginally better at a claimed 4000:1, what then would you say if I showed you a display with a contrast ratio of 200,000:1? Let me introduce the world's first Extreme Dynamic Range Display.

To test your knowledge answer True or False
to the following quiz
The term "32-bit colour" is actually a misnomer when talking about display colour depth. Many people believe that it represents some 4.2 billion colours, but in reality, it is just 24-bit True colour plus a further 8-bits of alpha transparency.

If you answered False then it's time to do some research or Ask Maven
