A very interesting composition with varing shapes of different sizes. That is the reason I belive this works so well. The dark, oversaturated, blue background is a great choice for this peice of work. A great eye on your part.

That blue sky is amazing Doyle. Far more powerful to have just the sky and the towers. So strong and intriguing.

Thanks Kelly . . . that's more or less what I saw! The interest comes, IMO, from cropping out the familiar. Incredibly . . . the BG is NOT really oversaturated . . . I simply adjusted levels in PS (white balance) to pull the tonal range and contrast! It worked wonderfully . . . and, thereafter, clearly didn't need increased saturation (although I WOULD have done it if it was needed! LoL!) I totally appreciate seeing your comments.

No thank you for your support, and thinking of us down here. I know we have gotten a lot of bad press in the pass few months, but there are a lot of good folks that have suffered a great deal and some that may not recover, there have been several that took their lives because they can't deal with it. We are coming back but it is very slow going, lots of contractors taking advantage of people, crime, and still looting in places. It is a bad situation. Thanks for your thoughts and concerns.

Dear Doyle
So different towers all at one place! How great if you had the opportunity to climb them, and then Marlyce could take a shot of you just like the one where you“re bravely fighting the waves to protect the innocense of your camera;-)
Best wishes,
Annemette

This has got to be the most powerful rich blue sky I have ever seen Doyle.....it is so intense you must have maxed out with the polariser:):) A great dramatic look at these anonymous towers. I particularly love the almost never ending spiraling steps to the main tower....awesome. Well done to you my friend....All the best...Ray

Hold the fort buddy . . . overall . . . although it may not seem like it at times . . . people are basically good at heart. Gandhi once said, "Whenever I dispair, I remember that good has ALWAYS triumphed over evil." It may not seem like it at times, but in the end . . . it's the truth.

Thanks Juan! The sky here is really the natural sky . . . I isolated it and adjusted the white balance, contrast and brightness . . . northing more.

Thanks Ray! In an amazing twist of fate I used NO filter this time . . . though usually I would have considered the Spherical Poloroid and UV filters. All I did (honestly) was to isolate the sky and adjust the levels (contrast / brightness) of the real sky. Nothing more.
