Lancaster Canal
I followed this narrowboat up the canal on Sunday, photographing it from my boat as it passed under a couple of bridges.
The owner appears to make (or perhaps supplement) his living by making rope fenders for other boaters, advertising his profession on the stern of the boat and towing his workshop behind like a tender.
While I can completely see the attraction of this lifestyle, it has a bit of a vintage flavour to it that, quite by coincidence, sits well with the style of the image.
I wasn't aiming for the 1930's travel poster look, but as a result of using a laptop with a low resolution screen I managed to overdo the strength (and under do the light smoothing) as I put it through Photomatix.
So, enemies of HDR look away now. For once I am glad that style has triumphed over substance.

Yup, I would say that HDR worked well in this case.
