I normally don't like pictures of buildings, but I do love this one!

 

[Alex_B]

sw1tch - are you left handed? or is alex? one of you is holding the camera in a different way. (i amn't going to bully any one as i am left handed).

nice perspective of the tower and the montparnasse(SP???). shame it didn't come out red. it is still red, no?

Since the image was taken via a mirror, I did mirror it again afterwards ...

red/brown-ish I think to remember (have to check on the close ups), but it was a
hazy day with >100mm lens so the red does not really come through but gets a hazy blueish/greyish/brownish whatever .

ah, alex, you are mean. but i have space in my heart to forgive a little sin.

they should take a leaf out of our (scottish) book as we know how to keep a big metal structure nice and red....

Even if one of them was left handed, do they actually make "left handed" cameras? Cause I've never seen one.

I do not think so ...

Looking at the levels in Ps there's quite a big gap left. Fixing this adds some much needed contrast to the image. Love the composition although I might have cloned out the two poles at the bottom left of the image too.

Cheers

I know what you mean, and did actually play with the levels, but in the end I preferred the soft version with less contrast, which gives it a soft feeling in a way. But I guess this is a question of taste
