C+C welcome.

Very nice image.

A square crop would look great in my opinion.

Cheers

I took the time to look at the full version of this image. What a cracker shot. The small version here just doesn't do it justice.

A small niggle from me (but accept I'm pretty anal about these things) is that I'm a little put off by the lens flare in a few parts of the image caused by all those lights. I'd clone them out - others wouldn't. :?

Brett - a cracker shot and I agree with Peter - some judicious cloning to remove the flares will make this a pic for the wall :)

the clouds look awesome, they must have been moving pretty quick.

An excellent image Brett. Heaps of detail in the pagoda. Clouds are great as well. I agree about the 4 coloured flares, clone them out if you can. Also, it might add a bit more if you warped it in photoshop to straighten it up a bit (or some other de-fish software).

Very nice.

Cheers
John

Thanks for the comments. The cloning process is under-way, albeit slowly. The two flares on the floor are proving the hardest to clone out neatly...

I'll post up a new image when I'm finished for you to comment on.

The flares are the only thing that really annoyed me about this photo.

is the flare due to a UV filter being used?
