Man! that chromatic abrasion is off the scale...
Also, there's lens flair everywhere. I get the impression that you made this an HDR because the exposure sucked?!

Cheers for the critique Jayson. I guess you're talking about "chromatic aberration" rather than "chromatic abrasion", but I must confess I had to google both to find this out. But having now done some research, all I can say is if you think this is bad you should have seen what I started with! But I take your point, things are far from ideal. If only I had more budget I might well take a leaf out of your book and use filters and flashes. To be honest, I don't even try to get the exposure correct outside of the bracketing I use for HDR, I find I'm faffing enough anyway and would rather get on with climbing; probably trying to fit too much in.

Lol, yeah my spelling sucks =P
By the way, I know what I said sounded sharp but I'm a blunt sort of person and I've had a naff day which probbably didn't help. To be honest, I've always hated HDR images so I guess I've always taken the chance to have a dig at them, its nothing personal. I just think they're the defanition of every bad thing that digital cameras have done to photography, a didgital photo to me is like a computer simulation of a real photo. I much prefere to shoot in film, prely because it already has a high dynamic range and great colour gammer. lol rant over.
i hope you don't take a little advice the wrong way (I like most of your pictures and don't know what sort of experiance you have) but if I were to offer you any, it would just be to embrace the capabilities you have and not to try too hard ;)

Keep it short and simple!
