 Yeah I know, the CN Tower again. But at least it's not showing its size too much. :)

Taken from The Docks after a trip to the zoo. I used a rented 10-22mm Canon lens and this was shot at 22mm focal length. I have shots in the 10mm length but there was just too much negative space at the top so I decided to enter this one.

No crop but did a little bit of perspective correction.

Post processing: curves, levels, color adjustments, cloned out some unwanted sensor spots on the blue sky. Also removed some unsightly white dots (reflections) on the otherwise dark silhoutted buildings; Neat Image, resize, crop, smart sharpen.

I'd like to see the horizon straightened. IT seems slightly tilted. The sky colors are pretty, but it seems a touch blurred to me maybe due to the shutter staying open to let in more light because of the time of day.
