It's been so long since I looked at this I'd mostly forgotten it. Had to dig up the raw's to figure out how I took it as the exif data got wiped out.
Taken on the same day/trip as my first upload.
Taken while having a break from driving on the loose metal road that winds around the coast and beneath Mount Karioi along the southern Raglan coast. Got an odd look and a shrug from the farmer whose driveway I was shooting from. Probably just happy not to have another mad bugger climbing his fence.
Technical info
7x RAW HDR
CPL used
10mm
F/22 (some foreground that was later cropped was very close)
ISO 100
0 bias, -4 to +4 EV range in (1 1/3) EV step
Photomatix then PS used to crop (I don't like some of the remaining foreground but didn't find any other crop that appealed to me). Curves and levels then iirc lowered the overall brightness a bit, it was a very bright golden hour.

Top image and processing, particularly of the sky. Not overdone as is often the temptation.

Cheers all.
@Dirk Sorry mate all my stuff has that frame too :( Could be worse. You could like the frame and hate the picture.
