Shot at the botanical garden, in Curitiba, Brasil.
Also known as the "Crystal Palace". But it's just a Green house. It's one of the city's postcards.
I got very lucky this day cz it was a bright sunny day (despite the clouds). But the best shots came out during the sun set.
Cloned out some light posts on the back of the greenhouse (rest of the park), darkened the city on the background to give more of a silouette look to it. Burned the clouds and a bit of the foreground to remove the rest of the scenery from the park.
That's it.
Lot's of effort was put into this one. I know it's a hard challenge, a Free Study. But it think this one will score well. I hope so LoL.

Parabéns! Grande foto. Sou um curitibano morando hoje em Porto Alegre. Acho muito bacana encontrar bons fotógrafos brasileiros aqui no DPC.

Congratulations! Great picture. I´m a curitibano (born at Curitiba), living at Porto Alegre at now. Is a pleasure to me to find good brazilian fotographers at here on DPC.
I really like this picture for its beauty within a regular place.
The green inside the glass house is just amazing and just reminds me of a different world. Great shot.
i love the subject and basic composition, but am not too keen on the sky. i may be wrong, but it just feels over-processed. i think the subject could be the focus of a study in and of itself. good luck!
