Sunday night

The other day I had a short walk in the white midsummer night near campus. Of course I had my camera with me. Actually I had my tripod also with me - so it wasn't just a walk :)
Finally I came up with the following photos:

This is an HDR image from a single RAW image file. I really like the outcome.

The key to this picture is a long exposure time.

Here I have made a HDRI from 4 JPEGs.

Again a HDRI but this time from 3 JPEGs.

This photo is unmodified.

Here I have made a bit of exposure blending and then reduced color saturation.

A little HDR modification.
This photo has not seen a bit of editing. It's a pure camera trick called "zoom blur", but of course you could do it with a little digital editing too. It is done by zooming out while photographing with a long exposure time. Simple, but effective, isn't it?
