Don't really care for this at all. Looks poorly photoshoped, and is blurry to boot. Maybe you should have not tryed to alter the colours and this might have done better.

nice but a bit oversharpened it appears

The problems I have with this image are the 'smudged' look to it and the rather blatant halos around the building (especially on the left). I know DPC usually requires images which have a lot of punch, but I think this particular picture would be better off toning some of the adjustments down to preserve the integrity of the image.

Nice pp but the shot isn't very attractive

You've taken an ordinary building and made something special with the color adjustments.

Back for comments.

Hello Brian. The processing on this image is slightly distracting as edge halos appear around the roof of the building. This doesn't appear to be natural. Your outtake is far better in terms of the processing of the skies. However, what does work for this one is the color you've chosen to render the building itself. The clouds are amazing. I love angry clouds such as this but the editing leaves me a bit on edge. Good luck.

"WOW"..... I really love the nodern "impact" re color and the angle from which it has been taken..... A great job here in this image for the archecture challenge.....

Very good use of color contrast and good composition, but the postprocessing looks a bit sloppy (jagged edges and halos around the roofs).

Neat colors on this one. Your dodging marks are noticeable on the left roofline and around the center balconies. Overall, though, a very nice geometry to the image.

A little heavy on burning down the sky. The halo on the buildings on the left give it away. Still nice image. 6

Looks like you were a little over-ambitious on the dodging/burning...
