Conservatory pelargonium (in the gloom)

I had such fun creating this image today. The light had gone and I shot this lovely pelargonium on a long exposure using the tripod. It's amazing how accurate the colours were.

Then I made three images using different exposures (we've been learning to make HDR images from a single file in our photo class, and using the technique with some subtlety - I hope). Here is the result. There were a few other processes en route. See what you think.
