The classic shot of Lincoln Cathedral by night. Whilst I was taking this there were four other photographers there with me, in fact I would think there are tripod feet holes on the foot bridge which crosses this main road.
PS work:
Selective brightness to compensate for the main tower lights not being as bright as the main building.
Saturation boost to the colours
Cloned out a street lamp which distracted the eye on the right midground
Non PS adjustments:
Used a Cokin Grad grey to the bottom half of the lens to lower the overall brightness of the car lights and to extend the exposure time.

A lovely concept carried out beautifully. The red and white leading lines at the bottom draw the attention effortlessly to the subject at the top. The tones are great. Good job!
