The property investment has always been termed as a good option for the investors to invest in.Though there were some pit falls globally in real estate industry and the property investors were bit susceptible about there ROI.But the market has recovered and even at the financial downfall globally it had maintained a kind of stability as well.I found some article at axispropertyinvestment.com which provides me the real bright prospective of doing property investment right in this phase of market…..the things are really up for a property investors like us!!!!!!!

Sounds really great and just like here in Brittany, old farm buildings can make lovely character houses. Have done this in France so maybe Italy next !

I believe the financial crisis has hit property sales all around the world. Still, at this moment, an investment on property market is better and safer than any other time.
The prices are going down so if you have some spare money put aside it could be the right moment to invest them.

Great to see the health of the skiers being taken care of so well. I’ve been in an accident skiing in Slovakia, took 4 hours to get to the hospital while having an opened fracture…

Hi Sandy

Thanks for the kind comments. I took 5 images on a tripod. Exposure settings, 0,-1,-2,+1,+2. I used a program called Photomatix to generate the HDR image, I prefer it to photoshop, but the latter is still great for this application.

Cheers

Clive

Clive,
That is a stunning HDR photo. It almost looks like an AutoCAD render.
I have just got into the realms of HDR from bracketed images – what did you use to create that? +/- 2EV for 3 or 5 images?
Most of mine turn out like mush for now – got a couple of good results, still learning; I hear that it’s best to have a vista of high and lowlights – how did you manage that in a church???
I’m stuck with Linux for the next four weeks, so no chance to play with Photoshop in Windows.
Anyway, beautiful result.
Cheers,
Sandy

Thanks for the great pictures. Although we missed the snow on Christmas day (we must be 30 miles East of you) we got it on the 26th instead. I see we have a lot of snow forecast for this week too. Happy New Year.
