Sorry I'm still confused you said that the left portion is a photo. But 
if it's HDR then there is something in the scene that is rendered?

Amazing work on the right image by the way!

Sorry not being familiar with Duchamp and not finding the first link of 
much help I looked him up on wiki to see what the discussions in this 
thread are about. For anyone else interested:

Hmm...I guess it's not so much Duchamp that bothers me, but the art 
world's view of his work *as* art...when it was, in essence, intented to 
be the antithesis or a parody thereof.

Wait a minute, I'm afraid I was not sufficiently clear, my apology for my
bad English:

1 - I say, left part is 100% a photo... a simple photo I shot
2 - and yes there is a HDR outside environment in the right image

Thanks again and have a nice day !
