Though saying that, the ones one the website have been crossed processed and lose some of the detail.
From my small collection of mildly eccentric architectural pix...
Since we're in an architectural mood today..
Judging by the shadows of the trees, you've shot this right in the middle of the day, with the sun almost directly overhead... which produces washed-out colours, an overall blue cast and little differentiation between foreground, middleground and background.
You can play around with adjustments in Photoshop... but it still won't look right. If you were to take the same shot early in the morning, or late afternoon/evening, you'd have directional side-lighting, more definition, and the colours would really 'sing'. Maybe a couple of golfers striding down the fairway too...
A bit overexposed in places but taken with my old olympus mju 410 before it got stolen and still a fav picture
Nice shot. Is that from the Stoa of Attalos?
As posted in the weekly contest thread (what can I say, I'm competitive ) - the 'Sometimes' makes me smile every time.....
How so?
