Challenge: For Sale (Advanced Editing V*)
Camera: Canon PowerShot S70
Location: San Francisco, CA
Date: Dec 11, 2006
Aperture: 8.0
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/15
Galleries: Interior, Urban
Date Uploaded: Dec 9, 2006

 Crop, curves, levels, some color adjusting, smart sharpen. I did select out the potential hotspot at the top and made my adjustments around it. Thanks to Advanced Editing for this one.

Taken at The Westfield Downtown Center in San Francisco, with my little Powershot Canon S70. I get out the "big" Canon with a nice wideangle lens attached, in crowded places, and people stare and want to know what I'm doing. I get out the little P&S and people smile sweetly at 'grandma' and let me alone.

No tripod, but I did balance the P&S on railings when available and bracketed my shots.

Great shot Alice (actually on my shortlist for top 10 pictures). I'm crazy about good architecture pictures - and that's just what this is.

Nice work, Alice! I know what you mean about the "big camera" - I need to get me a little one to play with. And in my lexicon, Nordstrom is indeed the ultimate shopping experience. Lovely shot - great perspective in more ways than one.

great use of line, i love that the central circle is in not in the center, it gives the picture motion. Nice colors too.

Great angle! The exposure is at the perfect spot where the ceiling isn't blown out and you can still see the glowing of the lights. Nice job.

Wow, I like this view. The strings of lights pull our focus inward to the top of the structure and all the balconies reinforce that. Great perspective and very clear image too.
