Nice door! I love the sign... there is one thing i would do different, although this may have been the look you were going for... i would have shot it at a different time when the sun was shining on the door, or later in the day when there was no sun.... Or, wait for a cloud to pass by...

the sign looks perfect, but the door is underexposed because it is in a shadow...

Great shot, but could use a bit more pop... i'd pump the contrast a bit to start

Toronto; Handle with Care. (Single shot, No Editing)

so, 61st eh? i thought i'd do better... oh well =) ok, so the cat is out of the bag now... you all know how I did it...

as far as all the comments... some helpful, some not so much... I am a newbie... and the rules are vague as to whether I can gain depth of field by combining different exposures... yes, I am allowed to do it (now I know...) but honestly, I like it better like this... I LIKE the "Harsh Light" and I LIKE the blur on the box... If you don't, well, boo hoo to you! =) as far as the shot of the city scape... yea, it's not the best shot, BUT the bristol board was MASSIVE! it was four sheets together, so a total of about 5 feet by 7 feet... I had to assemble them on site because it wouldn't fir in my car all put together... I needed Two other people to hold it up for me, and that was the only time I could get the help...

no, as far as the title, some people didn't like the part I added... yes. I know, i shouldn't have added it. It was the second contest I entered and I was still learning about the rules, so I didn't know what to do, I actually took that "single shot, No editing" out and re-added it like 10 times because I couldn't make up my mind... it's not your fault for calling me on it because you didn't know that i was on'y a week old at the time... If I could do it again, I would leave that part out for sure... OH, and to be safe, I submitted teh original fromt he beginning...

on a side note... If I DID want to put that box in focus (aside from combining multiple pictures with the different scenes in focus...) I would have to have either:
a) had a lens with a f/500 stop
b) stood WAY-WAY-WAY back and used a 5000mm lens to gain the depth of field...

I just though i'd add that for those of you who seemed to think that it would be possible with one shot =)

I like it much better this way... it draws your attention to the cityscape...

Thanks everyone for the feedback... I don't know if anyone will ever read this, but i wanted to add it anyways, =)

Great Shot! I think your ISO was a little high because it came out a bit grainy, otherwise great pic!
