Hradec Králové
My hometown

Technique:
To get this final result, I had to go to this place two times. When I was there for a first time (dusk), the white tower and cathedral were nicely illuminated with the reflectors, but the sky was clear. And because I wanted to have the sky cloudy, I had to go back next day at dawn.

As you can see, the sky was beautiful, but there was a problem - all reflectors were out. And I mean ALL - even those that illuminate the tower and cathedral. So the sky and houses on the right are the &quot;dawn exposure&quot; and cathedral with tower and foreground are the &quot;dusk exposure&quot;.

I aligned these exposures in Photoshop and masked the &quot;dawn exposure&quot; in. Then I used Nik Color Efex Pro to add more contrast and colors.
