This is a shot of the ceiling of an arbour at a SouthBank, an area highly popular amongst us Brisbane-ites that is parkland, man-made beach, shops, restaurants, etc right near the river. The colour is a bit of a mystery because it certainly isn't gold in the flesh but in the original and particulary with the post-processing, the gold came up.

Nice tones on this one. I love the yellow gold. Your capture of the pattern of dots was also quite good. The interest factor was what was lacking for me in this one. Well executed, technically correct, but I found it did not hold my interest.
