 This shot is from a lovely private school near my home called Emma Willard. I think it's only 40K per year per student (who doesn't live there).

You would never know it was freezing out with a 15mph wind that was just nasty cold.

This image is pretty much straight outta the camera. Simple color adujustment and low unmask and I was off to the races...

This is my first entry with a picture from my new 10D!

LENS USED: Canon 28-90mm F/4-5.5, taken at 28mm.

I must say that I like the strange angle of this building. It is effective. The stonework shows up clearly and the crenellated towers with the gargoyles
show up well.

interesting perspective, but it masks the parallel lines in the image.

Weird angle.
Not bad, just weird.
And that is a good thing!
I don't think the parallel lines are too obvious though.

Its a nice shot but in my opinion it doesn't fit the challenge too well.. yes i see the parallel lines but they don't quite stand out if you know what i mean. Very good choice of angle. Good technicals too... spot on focus! Good but just not fitting the challenge.. maybe architechture wouldv'e suited this shot better... 3 sorry
