 This building is located in downtown Victoria... looks like I missed the perfect lighting by about 5 minutes :( Wasn't sure really what was expected of this challenge, but threw in a submission anyways. Shot in raw and adjusted clarity, saturation, and exposure. Exported to CS4 and USM, burned in the sky a little.

Great architecture shot, BL meets challenge. Halo gradation is actually quite fun and rarely done as it's seldom liked by the anti 256 colour pixel brigade. Exposure control is good.

The banding in the sky is unattractive. 2
