Not sure where to put these shots of the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur but I wanted to share them. I'd love to have some feedback. FYI, I used Matt Kloskowski's "Surreal Edgy Effect" on these. Thanks for viewing / commenting!

Amazing shots of amazing buildings. I prefer shot 1.

Jack'll do

Very nice indeed. I like the sharpness of #2 but the bright area in bg and lack of detail in the darker shadows detract. So of these two I'll go with #1 as well.

Howdy,

Really strong powerful image very well presented.

Very nicely done!!

Here is my attempt at it in Photoshop using a layer mask with various adjustments in black levels, contrast, and fill light...



To give you guys an idea of what the effect does, here is one of the unedited originals:



Thanks for all the feedback; I had a great time in KL and would love to go back but man was it HUMID there!
