Challenge: Wide Angle II (Minimal Editing I)
Camera: Canon EOS-600D/T3i Rebel
Lens: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 USM II
Location: Covered Souq, Dubai U.A.E
Date: Jun 2, 2012
Aperture: f/22
ISO: 1600
Shutter: 2
Date Uploaded: Jun 2, 2012

I shot this early this morning at the covered Souq (Arabic for Marketplace).. What i find interesting is the rhythmic patterns in the roof, and the reflection of the lit lamps illuminating the floor, making it appear like an illuminated path.

I captured this with the 18-55 kit lens (my widest lens) set to 18mm. The picture is exactly as in camera, and the sepia tone and contrasting was done in camera itself. Of course, had this not been a minimal editing challenge, i could have done a lot more with this picture! ;-)

I think this shot should be tilted much further or straightened out. The slight tilt makes it seem like a mistake.

Good use of the light especially for minimal edit.

A bit eerie because it seems so deserted.
