 Super simple edit here, no use for the expert rules on this. We'll see if that was a good choice.

Since this is doing so well, and there have been some questions as to the level of editing, I figured I'd just add in a resized original.. Not the exact same frame, but close enough to demonstrate just how little editing was needed..



As you can see there was very little editing here, the effect here is just the nature of a long lens and a decent shooting position. (my balcony..)

These are apparently the Green Diamond & Blue Diamond condo buildings in Midbeach — and, from what I'm told, when they were built they were the tallest (at 45 stories) ocean-front condos in the world.

Perhaps a bit of flattening from the sharpening, but not getting that "crinkly" look I associate with "oversharpening".

I don't think there is anything wrong with the sharpening. It looks crisp and nice. Good photo too!

Red with fury over these towers! Does not know how much they shy away at her presence and defer to her
