This is the Philly skyline from the South Street bridge... the section of it with a view is completely derelict and presumably under construction, so I had to hop some barriers to get to the ledge that has this view. From here you can see all the major buildings but their composition isn't the most interesting, but the view itself is really nice b/c your over the river.
PP: Crop, Convert to Grayscale -> Duotone, Shadow/Highlights to bring the lights in check and bring some detail out in the buildings (doing this in duotone mode keeps the colors from getting too messed up), convert to RGB, curves, levels, etc..., resize, USM, border, s4w
Thanks for the votes!

I apparently left a partial comment of 2 letters during the challenge. I don't even remember what I was starting to comment! Glad you found that helpful! |

nice sharp pic!!! I like the fact that all the windows in the buildings are sharp and not overexposed!!! Great work for a Basic editing challenge! I am looking foreward to your camera setting/editing steps. |

The blue isn't completely apparent to me without knowing the subject of the challenge. Still it's a very nice, crisp picture! |

Beautiful shot. Maybe it's my monitor but I'm hardly getting any blue here. |

I think a little more blue would have done this good, but it's a nice capture, good contrast, and good job not making the big lights too bright. |
