Blimey what on earth is this. It looks like a theatre set at first look. Very dark, could be a post holocaust image. The sky is marvelous. Still this said, not really sure about it. I cannot think what to focus on. Great ominous feel about it though.

pretty fantastic imagery.. looks like a scene in a video game.

you have the sens of making crappy locations attractive :)

Whoa, that is fantastic!

Man! that is very cool. I just heard about HDR recently and just started playing with it. You can get some crazy effects but this one I like.

I absolutely love this - as someone has already said it looks like a scene from a video game. I was wondering if you'd been able to capture any interiors of the boats. Brilliant!

amazing- this shot looks like its from a video game or something- it does remind me of the holocaust= an image i would get in my head---

it's so phenomenal for something that would look so depressing

This stimulates my mind!

That looks great with the black theme.

Well, I guess this could qualify as a close-up, so thanks :) The sky looks a little odd, (colour-wise) but I guess it matches the colours of the ship. I love the fact that there's so much to look at and the framing is perfect. Can't believe you almost didn't post this...

Incredible - it looks like a movie set.

you know the films of Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro? "Delicatessen" and especially "La Cité des enfants perdus"? If not enjoy the colors ;-)

walla !!.. and with the black theme, it looks as if this came straight out of an adventure island movie - you sure did find a treasure ;)

This is the most interesting shot you've posted of the wreck yet. The dark, dreary colors really make this for me, but the texture and destruction that you see is fantastic too.

Great colours and DOF.

Wow. Perfect texture and color. I didn't know what this was at first. The sky in the background makes me imagine that it's still sailing. You amaze me every day.

I'm surprised, like every day. I love to discover your views.
wondderful image, colors ...

I missed this shot because I was not athletic enough to climb over the bulwark! But I was instrumental in it's taking as I passed the camera and tripod up!

Fantastic surreal shot. How envious I am that I do not have this photograph. Return trip with ladder called for! If anyone has any doubts about HDR as a legitimate technique should be convinced by this image. Not a phrase I use very often but I am gob smacked by this image.

This is good, it's one of the better HDR shots I have seen. HDR is easy to do badly but to do it well is tricky, you pulled it off here.

Wonderfully OTT! My first thought too Owen.

Utterly amazing! what a fantastic shot, this has to be one of the best I've seen of your work (though Urban Space is still No.1)

That. Is. The. Shiznit.

By far one of your most impressive shots. There is so much atmosphere and drama in this capture, and your toning matching the pea-soup green to the rust really works. I a little more vignetting would have pulled the observer in a bit more, but that is the only suggestion I could make on this. Well done!

Onward and onward I go, where no man should be bothered to go..

Lovely!

I like this one. The processing may be a bit heavy, but i think that's what makes the image work. It's really dramatic and looks like the scene of major disaster.

Nicely done. Great post-processing, as always.

This one is by farrrrr my favorite of the series. It leaves a lot to the imagination.

For some reason it reminds me of the set of a play. I REALLY like it.

Awesome = my two bits.

Theatrical, if they would make "Halo" into a play. This image makes you spend time studying all the details; you probably have ten other photos inside this one. I'm glad you decided to post it.

Wow! That's really amazing looking.

I don't suppose you would give us a little rundown on how you go about compositing the 4 images?

Why you didn't think this had potential to begin with is beyond me. I quite like this one. Well composed, spooky colours and loads of detail.

I expected to see Sigourney Weaver come running through pursued by Aliens ! Very 'out of this world' - I like it !

Looks like the remains of a burnt down building. I like the processing, although the picture lacks a bit of sharpness; I don't know if that's the original or the processing that's done that. What a bleak photo, but in a good way.

I really like the tones in this image and the angle is very cool. Nicely done

Another fine addition to the series David.......really like it

Where do you find all dead boats?

another great HDR pciture! Thank you very much for your answer about the digital camera.

I'm like a few others who though at first that this was a shot of a theatrical scene. It's very nice clever HDR shot.

seems like a dangerous place to shoot, I'm glad you did though because the results are phenominal.

HDR is bringing great results. I wonder what the scenery looks like in a "normal" photo?

Brilliant - love this series and this one in particular.

WOW!!! So much to look at; so much detail. Beautiful color I love this! Awesome.

I never saw a similar photograph. Great HDR shot. Beautiful colors and perfect framing. Really wonderful!

WOW, great surreal shot. I love the colors and the mess!

Lots to keep the attention in this shot!

Great - my favorite of your boat shots

Totally looks like one of the final scenes from Sin City, where they're all gathered at the end of the long alley and Clive Owen is holding Rosario Dawson as he throws the explosive head into the crowd... totally.

I paid a quick visit to these boats this afternoon - and your images have literally blown mine out of the water! How on earth did you get onto this boat without breaking your neck (or sinking up to it in mud?!). I guess you were wearing wellies because I came back covered in muck and smelling of fish :-)

Visiting these boats personally has really made me appreciate the effort you put into your post-processing. Think I'll be playing with photoshop all week now trying to match the quality of your photos!

Fantatstic, looks space age meets the industrial age meets b movie!

How cool is this. Well I suppose it would be with no roof 8-)

Superb as usual.

Looks like a scene out of a scary movie!

Yip, I really like this one Dave. Great colour, tone and chaotic, desolate (do they mean the opposite thing?!) image. Good shooting and pp.

Awesome!

It's so incredible! Surreal!

You know, I think I've nailed what it is that attracts me to these HDR images....if Hitchcock had been alive and directing now, his stills would have had this light. Hyperreal. Innocuous scenes carefully infused with light of such starkness that illusions of heightened perception and paranoia ensue. Where all kinds of possibilities exist to explain the image....but you know that none of them are good or exist outside the 'shadows' of life. This particular shot reminds me a lot of Jeffrey Scott's industrial surrealism images...

That's really nice. I like it a lot, despite my previous rants about HDR.

Excelente picture, great colours . Nice job

I expect a mutant to jump out of the frame anytime now.
