Location : North Pole.

This image was captured at 6:00pm using a tripod-mounted Canon 5DmkII camera and a Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5 L II lens. I used Live View to focus on the statue. The camera was set to manual exposure mode, f/8, ISO 100 and daylight white balance. I then captured a series of 10 exposures from 30 seconds all the way to 1/15th second in one-stop increments. The RAW processing, creating and saving of the HDRI were all done in Photoshop CS6. The HDRI file was then opened and tone mapped in Photomatix Pro before the final clean-up and enhancement work was done back in Photoshop.
