Thumb-up Thumb-up    from chasimon/Charles (1,683) Send mail to this user on June 3, 2008 12:05:43 PM CDT (0) Early critique

Too bad time was not taken to correct the distortion on the right hand building. PS would have squared this with the world and created a 3 TU photo. I see no problem with the sky as I am a big user of the polarizer filter. I also don't see that this is an HDR photo. If it is, please mention.

Is there reason that the top left corner is not rounded as the other three are?

This photo is great artistically and technically -- the colors, perspective, etc. My only criticism would be that it's *too* perfect, to the point where it becomes unrealistic looking. For me personally, I think it's the sky that pushes it over that threshold -- I would prefer it if it wasn't quite so blue. Did you use any High Dynamic Range techniques to get this look, by chance?

Hi Mykhailo this a very nice try for a HDR nic e clean colours,sorry if I'm wrong but on the right hand side the camera distortion is a bit disturbing (at least to my eyes)or maybe just the horizon is not completely straight?But altogether a very nice shot.Thanks for sharing
