   Spanish architecture looks amazing in HDR… the blur and artificial lighting is a little overdone in some of these, but overall nice photos.

   Great pictures, great places… But where’s the mosque of Cordoba?? A subject too sensitive to appreciate in the States??

     What a dumb comment…1001 other great places to take photos of in Spain but because he doesn’t post the mosque you like…it must be a touchy subject. Juha, you are the reason the world has issues.

     the mosque in Cordova has been shown many many times. the photographers were trying to show something we have’nt all seen a thousand times. nothing to get worked up about dude……………..

     What a ridiculously misplaced and ignorant comment. Must be a touchy subject for you.

   I can’t say that I’m a fan of HDR when executed like this. I feel that the overblown and and overdone processing detracts from what would have been a perfectly good image in it’s more natural form.

   I’d like to see these same images processed in a way more loyal to the original light and subject, where I think that the architecture would have stood out more than the processing.

   Is the photographer here trying to draw the viewers eye to the subject or the processing? To me it feels like the latter.

   There is definitely a place for photos like this. I did enjoy these, but would be curious to see similar shots with less processing accompany these.

   Images like these are the reason I stopped using flickr where such oversaturated gimmicky pictures seem all the rage these days. While there might be some technical merit to them, this HDR effect carries no artistic merit whatsoever (it’s my opinion and obviously debatable). An effect is an effect and will always be “just an effect”. HDR is like make-up on a woman – too much and it looks cheap, when you don’t even notice it’s there it looks classy. Sadly all but maybe one in these fall into the “cheap make-up” category.

   Can’t believe having Spectacular Architectures without showing the Islamic part… Was that done intentional??

     It kind of makes me wonder why we never see Christian cathedral photographs in Islamic countries nasser, could it be intentional ??

     Wow, what a dick. I’d much rather spend some time with almost any Muslim person than you, it sounds like you’d have trouble with even basic polite conversation. Then again, it’s easy to be a douche when you’re anonymous and the people you are insulting don’t have faces.

   I’m not a fan of HDR but the artist in this case definitely knows their lighting techniques.

    steve jobs wants to know where all the barcelona architecture is. if this is strictly historic architecture why not include casa botllo? oh its little known how about casa mila or sagrada familia. Gaudi is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, architect to influence the country of spain. No ode to him?

      I agree as well. I’m also surprised by the lack of Moorish buildings. Where’s the Al-Hambra? Where’s the Great Mosque at Cordoba?

    HDR makes for garish and tasteless photographs and unfortunately most people have no taste and love those overcooked effects.
