Wow!!! The weather was certainly co-operative and I was going to ask if you had the grounds swept and the Museum recently scrubbed... Everything looks soo clean, and PEACEFUL and gorgeous !!!
I really like the composition..and the fact of no people in this one.
Good job 7+
Michele~

A lovely view Doyle, the rich saturated colors are gorgeous..I love those reflections, and I like the uncorrected fisheye version too, makes it look like its on a curve in the neighborhood...this is what you call postcard perfect. Very beautiful image..Linda

It almost doesn't look real.
Great colors - they are amazing. Love the sky and the green grass. Excellent crop from your untouched version you posted.
I hope someday to visit for the Palace of Fine Arts myself.
Excellent!

What a fabulous photo, Doyle! The colours are just breathtaking. Thanks for posting the uncorrected one, too - it's interesting to see how things start out. Just out of curiosity, how did you correct the distorsion?
All the best, SQirl

Oh Lisa . . . you definately need to visit this place! Roman ruins, the design . . . see the about section in the photo titled "Inside" for details . . . it is breathtakingly beautiful. I'm not sure it can be conveyed in photos. But I intended to try. Thanks for the comments. Incidently . . . early Sunday morning the place was almost entirely our own. There were only four of five there when we left. I'd recommend an early visit.

I got a free trial download of Capturenx from the Nikon website . . . it's amazing and you can use it for 30 days before you decide to buy or not. I used that program to correct this shot:

Thanks so much for your comments . . . they're always appreciated!
