Stangergill Burn at Castletown Mill, a location that fascinates me, but rarely produces a photograph that pleases me, the light through the trees is the attraction, but also the problem, controlling the contrast to get a good balance between the highlights and shadows is often a problem.
Last week the bright December sunshine gave rise to another attempt at this location.
Below are three different versions of the same photograph, the first an HDR from multiple images, then processed as a Black & White, the second a colour HDR from multiple images, and finally an image from a single exposure, underexposed from the meter reading.

My personal favourite is the Black & White, followed by the single exposure, I would be interested to hear other peoples views.
