My favorite landscape from Lauttasaari, Helsinki, a small island with two trees and a big stone and Harmaja lighthouse island in the background. I had my camera on a sturdy tripod (GIZO carbon fibre and GIZO video head), HDR of 7 shots, Photomatix software with frame aligning. A kind of testing how all this works and seems to work pretty well.
