 Dunno about this one. First glance, wow! Second glance, hmmm...

Editing - shot in RAW, converted to JPEG using RAW Therapee, rotated slightly, noise removal then whacked into Paint Shop Pro where I did HSL on the cyans, cropped, USM, clarify, levels, resize for web and USM one last time.

I think I should have left this shot for an advanced editing challenge. Buggered up the sky a bit (technical term - look it up) could have done with some selective blurring - the sky is very oversharpened. also you can see very definite bulging caused by the wide angle lens (at its widest) which I can't correct in basic.

Wow. Like the wide angle on this and you still couldn't get it all in! That's some building.

Great picture, good angle. Not the most exciting honestly, but technically very strong.
