 Im not quite sure how this will be accepted. I had some difficulty deciding which photo to submit for this challenge, Ive taken so many photos this month. I think that this photo, if accepted well, would score the best.

PP:Thanks for all your comments. This scored about how I figured (but not hoped) it would. The scene is crooked, because the architecture is crooked - the path leans to the right, and the building to the left, and not evenly at that...

It seems a bit overprocessed for my taste...

This is to much HDR. The newels are glowing to much, I like the sky and the Operahouse...but not the railing.

I like the tree skyline but overall it feels a little over processed.

Like a scene from a creepy video game. Super moody, super nice. Great use of sharpening and blue.

the edit is a bit ghastly and makes it look artificial

Nice photo, but could do with straightening I think. Looks a bit off-level to me which is slightly distracting. Great location, and nice foreboding sky.

In a world where time moved along a different path, the story of a King and his Elven Queen would unfold to reveal the destiny of a legend. Born to a simple people, he would find himself entwined in a battle for a land on the edge of darkness. He would find himself put in control of a power over time that he didn't understand, with the balance of the lives of an entire peoples resting on a struggle to learn and control that power.

Against him, not only time itself, but an evil that knew no mercy. An evil that desired only destruction, death, and controlling the power wielded by the boy. Chased endlessly by the minions of this evil force, and chased by time and destiny itself, he desperately sought to discover not only the secret of the ultimate weapon, but the secret of the hero that hid within himself.

Could he master himself and this power, or would Evil reign over all the lands?

It may be an illusion but photo looks tipped to the left. I'm a nut about tilt.
