When you least expect it
Deep inside the old part of Peshawar, Pakistan. Architecture can be beautiful in its own way, especially in places where you least expect it.

The Good, The Bad, the Ugly.

I would have preferred not having the dough show (unintentional rhyme) but I couldn't think of a way for it to work without it. the smoke made my room stink but it was worth it.

Covered it up with body spray before my mom came home.
Sunset HDR
Following a very rainy day in Peshawar, on April 21st, 2012.

My first proper attempt at an HDR with a tripod (cause handheld just wont agree with photomatix. 8 pictures merged together ranging from -5 EV to +4 EV at f20.
came out better than I expected, really. so i decided I'll start this thing with this, one of those rare times when a picture comes out better than I plan it.
