Challenge: Centered Composition III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM
Location: Heathrow, London
Date: Apr 5, 2008
Aperture: f/8.0
ISO: 800
Shutter: 1/13
Date Uploaded: Apr 7, 2008

 Took this shot during a 4hr layover at London's Heathrow Terminal 1. I was rather bored so I took out my camera and started shooting random objects and planes. Not really expecting much, just hoping to boost my avg score above a 5.0.
Adjusted the colours to highlight only the red of the cola and make everything else B&W. Tone Curve, Exposure, Contrast, Crop and export.

I am having a hard time getting my bearings on this image. Very good technical photo. Good choice of selective de-sat.

I'm not sure about the "twist". How did it look straight?
