Kykkos Monastry
This is Kykkos monastery high in the Troodos mountains. I'd love to photograph the inside but its not allowed - the place is dripping with gold, silver and precious stones...

Like the perspective, it really leads you in. The decorated panels look interesting, and add a splash of colour.

No, it isnt HDR - this is a single image simply adjusted in CS3 by > Image > Adjustments > Shadow/Highlight, and then adjusting the Shadows, highlights and midtones.
It does look like HDR though, eh.

Really? I use that feature, but to keep the sky and the shadow area together is pretty cool.

It's a really nice photo, I like the composition and the sky, any chance you could bring down the levels on the white dome, it's looks really over exposed.

Interesting angle it taken from, the only thing that spoils it for be is the white of the tower being blown as WW has pointed out. Maybe the same picture taken on a duller day or a cloud obstructing the sunlight would cure this against a lot of PP work.
