Camera: Canon EOS-10D
Location: Buffalo, NY

Aperture: f/16.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/15 sec
Galleries: Abstract, Architecture
Date Uploaded: Nov 27, 2004

 Columns on the north side of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, NY. My hunch is that there will be several of this kind of image in this challenge - thus diminishing the originality of mine, ...and the likely votes. Oh well... I like it :-)

Not much was done here, other than cropping, rotating, choosing the blue monochrome channel, and adjusting levels and contrast.

Thanks for looking, commenting, and/or voting.

I would have liked this photo more with different lighting and on a straight angle. The angle is "uncomfortable" and I cant' see a reason to make it uncomfortable.

Why yes, yes there are. 7 pillars. Your going to hate me cause of this, but the background is bugging me. see...in the first few to the left, there is a black space between each pillar, and then it kind of gets off spaced..then there's a door, and then a black space between the last 2 pillars to the right. This bugs my Obsessive Compulsive side, and sorry. I think your focus and clarity are great and lighting is great and I like the black and white. The angle and framing/cropping are really good. love the dramatic angle you took it at. those darn squares are buggin me though. lol still very nice find, and good take on the challenge. ~Heather~

The angle and lack of color give a feeling of old-world nobility.
