Post Challenge:

I am shocked that I won a ribbon. I didn't think my score was high enough for top 10! Thanks so much for the votes and comments.

And to those wondering if this was done in basic, it certainly was. I got a validation request during voting. I use PSP and I have one word for you: "Clarify"! :)

Awesome as usual! I used to work in that building for a while, although I've never seen it look so good.

Way too over-processed for my taste, but a good image still.

This has a very Jebbish look to it. A look that I like and often try to do myself, with varying rates of success. If this entry is not from NikonJeb, then please take that as a compliment.

Great texture! I am assuming this is HDR, though I don't know a lot about HDR processing so I can't really comment to that. I do however like the perspective. The pillars look gigantic compared to the door!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Neat entrance, but it looks over-processed somehow. Reminds me of HDR or Topaz.
