Trafalgar Square Fountain and Skeleton

Last month I was in London for work, and had a weekend to walk and shoot (photos silly – it is England after all …). I walked out to the National Portrait Gallery and Trafalgar Square and grabbed a bunch of images, including this one of one of the fountains in the square and a sculpture of a horse skeleton on the fourth plinth.

From this angle it looks like the horse is a dinosaur about to drink from the fountain which made me chuckle a bit. Yabba Dabba Do!

This is an example of taking three fairly horrible images and using AuroraHDR and On1 Photo to clean them up into something fairly nice and usable. I’ve also added this image to the London page of my gallery. Please feel free to comment/critique at will 🙂
