Challenge: Silhouettes III (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon PowerShot S2 IS
Location: Victoria BC

Aperture: 8.0
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/200

 Workers in Victoria Int'l Airport replace plain glass with colourful panes above the entrances. I'm not sure why they didn't just use stick-ons...


levels, colour balance, USM, noiseware, resize, USM, save for web.

I know the perspective is a little off, wish we were allowed to correct it. I was standing in the departure desk lineup and if I moved left there was a huge pillar right in the way. If I moved in front of it I was too close, looking up at too sharp an angle. But I liked the overall effect enough to go with it anyway :)
Thanks for all the comments, they're always much appreciated :D

I really like the colours, the clouds, the idea and the silhouettes. But there's something about the crop that is not right IMO. Hard to say what exactly though.

Nice focus. The composition is confusing for me because I don't know what the subject is supposed to be. I know it's the silhouetted workers and structure, but the colored panels draw too much attention.

I like this, very cheerful colors and visually interesting. I think maybe the perspective could have been improved, a bit crooked.
