Yes, yes ... I can hear the groans already!

I'm not the greatest fan of your typical cliché shots either, which is why in all my years of living in Melbourne I've never actually tried this one before.

Still ... I was stuck in the city last night, so I figured what the hell. Even though it's horribly clichéd, everybody still needs to have at least one in their collection, right?

Mastering the clichés is all part of the learning process.

You have done this very well, I'd be happy with it. :)

I like it but its a shame about the blown front of the building. You could have tried doing a double exposure and blending the images to pull back detail on the front.

I do like the bright white effect you got from the lights. Looks great. Dont feel bad about the cliche. Its a good shot.

Blown?

It's certainly brighter than the rest of the building, but I don't think that I'd go nearly as far to say that it's actually blown!
