Image - HDR (High Dynamic Range) software has been used to produce this image from 3 or 5 bracketed exposures. The camera was mounted on a tripod. In simple terms, the software merges the images using correctly exposed sections of each image to produce the final photo. This produces a much higher dynamic range of tones which would be impossible to achieve using a conventional single image.
