Challenge: From the Ground Up III (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT
Lens: Tamron AF 28-200mm f/3.8-5.6 LD Aspherical IF Super II for Canon
Location: Downtown Orlando, FL
Date: Aug 2, 2006
Aperture: f/11
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1.3 sec
Galleries: Cityscape, Architecture
Date Uploaded: Aug 2, 2006

 I thought having part of the arch from a fountain/sculpture in the foreground added depth, leading lines and some interest to the upward shot. I would have liked to have something in the upper left sky, but the moon was further east.

Adjusted RAW file in RSE: Strong appearance, increased sharpness and detail extraction, applied noise suppression and color noise supression.
In Photoshop, adjusted levels, cropped slightly, bumped up saturation, unsharp mask filter, resize for DPC, USM again, save for Web.

The effect of the light on the building is more interesting, than the slaps

This is beautiful. The lines make a great composition. The lights add a nice spark (no pun intended) of interest.
