 Condo complex, I was on the 15th floor, and used my client's 5D to shoot this. Edited on my laptop, and very happy the color is ok. I used the RAW converter in the CS3 beta to get the colors right, then did a hue/sat adjustment layer on the reds to boost the ugly light's brown at the horizon. Crop, unsharp mask, that's it.

The transition of color and tones through this is very cool. Great job of making a very ordinary subject rather interesting.
