Facing The Future

I generally try to avoid taking pictures with people in them, but on this occasion I think the figure adds something. I spent half an hour down at the river last Sunday, and the cloud formations were fantastic. I got a few decent pictures, some of which I will put up over the next few days, but this one jumped out as my favourite.
This was taken looking east along the Humber bank at Brough foreshore, East Yorkshire. There was a breeze blowing off the river. The post-processing included a tone-mapped (HDR) layer which I used to bring out the detail in the leaves and grasses, and the texture in the wall.

Beautiful photo. I am hoping I might be able to get a high-rez version I could use for Wallpaper on my less than exciting PC.
Thanks,
