    I wish it was taken with greater DOF though, otherwise VP is not that accentuated, IMHO ne_nau.gif

    OK, perhaps these will be better for meeting the asignment.

    I shot these this weekend, with the assignment in mind, while gathering some images for a charity fundraiser which was held at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C.

    Thank you, Capn'! thumb.gif
    It's a bit subtle for the said assignment, but VP is there. You'd get it more pronounced if you had moved you camera close to one of the rails - just an idea for the future...

    That's a classic :-) Thank you! thumb.gif
    I would suggest a bit of curves treatment: daylight is harsh and the image looks very flat ne_nau.gif

    Don,
    while this picture would probably stand as a VP exhibit in court, I realy don't think it's a good example of it ne_nau.gif .
    I'm sure you can find a better one! thumb.gif

    Great color on the sky, did you use CP or it's plain PP?

    I'll have to admit to adding vignetting and a slight hue correction on the blue :D

    Grant's Trail Storm

    I stumbled into some amazing light this morning while I was riding my bike with my camera bag. The storm on the horizon and the sun shining through the clouds before the storm made for this shot.

    Here is a picture I took today at the Arbor Hills Nature Reserve. I saw it and knew it would be good for this assignment so I framed it up!

    Here you go. I almost did not put it up since it is too much like some of the others.
