			| Challenge:  Curves II (Advanced Editing VII) Camera:     Canon EOS-30D
 Lens:       Canon EF 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye
 Location:   South Bank, London
 Date:      Mar 30, 2008
 Aperture:   f11
 ISO:        100
 Shutter:    various
 Date Uploaded:      Mar 30, 2008
 
 
 | Tower Bridge, circa 1884 London City Hall, circa 2002
 
 Produced this to really enhance the modern new architecture against the old.  Might be a little too strong, but we'll see how it goes down in voting.  Didn't have long to get this one right because I had security hassles immediately after shooting this set.
 
 PP:  HDR from 3 exposures on AEB, selective exposure adjust of City Hall, adjusted temp down a bit to cool it down, burned in foreground, levels, border, nn, resize, usm, save for web.

		| | oohhh this is so nice.  Editing is top notch.  If i had a complaint, it would be only that I wish the cloud cover in the top left was a bit more compositionally effective, like if there was a big floating cloud there, that would perfectly balance the composition and framing.  Still great as it is, and I know you can't affect the heavens, just sort of a 'wish'. |

		| | I could just scream when I see photos like this!!! (that's a good thing, in case you were wondering) I want to visit London so badly and will hopefully get there later this year. I just love this photo, the stunning architecture, the beautiful day, the contrast of old and new, how the gleaming rail just pulls me into the photo, perfect!!! |
