Challenge: Urban Landscapes II (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-30D
Lens: Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
Location: London
Date: Aug 10, 2007
Aperture: f4.5
ISO: 1600
Shutter: 1/2000
Date Uploaded: Aug 14, 2007

 OK, I know this is going to bomb. It's not a great photo, or a particularly recognisable urban landscape but it was taken from my kitchen window in London and I've been wanting to share this view with people for a while. Maybe the council would be more appropriate ;-)
By the time I'd changed the camera down from ISO1600 and got a better exposure the cat ran away, and I prefer the shot with it in.
Adjusted contrast/brightness/crop/unsharp mask/resize.

this may be the only photo in the challenge that fulfills the oxymoron of "urban landscape" 10

Wow! I've lived in the desert all my life. Stuff like this just doesn't happen in my world. Very interesting shot.
