First shoot with my new Tokina 11-16mm, must say I am really enjoying it. Also my first post to dpchallenge so take it easy on me. Ran into some issues with time and date settings on my camera, appears I've been shooting in 2008/2009 for the past few months. Realized when I was checking the metadata for the shots. After re-adjusting date and time I went back to Rhodes Memorial and re-shot.

Sepia toning, curves, sharpen, brightness & contrast and slight colour adjust.

Kind regards,

stunning. the light tones give us a chance to dream into the strong geometric composition. the tree is the lemon zest on the cake, in the coffee, wherever.

Hi - just letting you know that I've added this to the posthumous thread. Your cropping really impressed me and IMHO it should have been much higher in the rankings - here's the thread:

Very cool composition and great angle. I usually like high contrast but the low contrast works very well here. The tree at the end is the icing on the cake.10

well compsed, like the sepia, bit overexposed, though

Nice, like the choice of tilting the frame here, think it adds to the picture and the row of columns pull me into the image.
