Every so often, I get the urge to do a little night photography. Here's one from early morning.

Cool shot, but the tilt is enough to make some folks queasy - it would work, under different circumstances, IMO, but not for a straightup architectural city scene like this.

A little distortion correction in Photoshop:


And here, just destat the whole thing, about 50% - 60% it kinda came out really tuscany-colored IMO

Thanks for "straightening me out". I didn't even notice the slant in the original until I saw your post, but the corrected version is better.

I started to play with the color, but I sort of liked the amber street light effect. It reminded me that I was up photographing while most sane people were still making zzzzzzzzzs.

BTW - super exposure - not easy with nightshooting.

I agree. Great exposure and nicely straightened by Andy :

I can't believe they leave the outdoor settings there after dark. If it were here they'd be gone by sun up.
