 Minor adjustments, crop, tone, contrast and image size. Used a polarized filter.

I was near the Parliament Buildings in Ottawa ON Canada and snapped this while a marching band was walking by. Knew there was some reason to focus on the Architecture! Got back home and saw the new open challenge. :) Haven't entered anything in a long long looooooong time.

I like the sky ... not so much to do with the photo techniques, but it just looks so nice to have a totally blue sky with not a cloud in sight!

A nice sharp and detailed shot, but the cut-off framing of the image is not working for me. Backing off on the zoom a bit might have worked better for my own preferences.

I like the even color of the sky being a backdrop for the building, but I think the cropping on the left and top take away from the picture.

Less sky, more of that great intricate architecture.
