I knew I'd over-lightened the image, and that sepia was a risk. I've since done what I feel is a better edit. I'd be curious what people think. It's the version I have at dpcprints. Thanks for all the praise and the criticisms...

Interesting subject. Too bad about the blown out sky.

This is a very interesting picture. Taking the picture at a different time of day might have produced a better result. the light to the left is a little overpowering.

The ice tower's great, but I find the overexposed sky somewhat distracting.

cool tower, the shot looks a little washed out on the left side but on the whole a very pleasing entry

Very nice! A little more crop on the left and it would have been perfect! Great job!
