When I was boring I decided to check my patience.

Beautiful job. Your patience has been rewarded with that finished product. My preference: the desaturated version. It is still animated and colorful, but, in my opinion, more realistic.


Thank you for looking, your compliments and your opinion.

I would crop out the light building on the left margin. It's columns seem absolutely vertical, while the remainder of the photo needs to have its horizon straightened. Getting rid of that building will allow you to straighten the photo without introducing jarring non - vertical lines along the side of the photo, where they would be unsettling. Further more, that building adds nothing to the composition and arguably distracts the eye because of its relative brightness. You might then also consider cutting the pole from the picture for the same reasons you took out the wires on which you did a very good job. I wouldvprefer a saturation level about half way between your two examples.

Thanks for looking and your opinion. I do not know how to remove pole from this picture except cropping. If you know please do it.

Nice job. Been there, done that a few times. Sometimes there is no way to avoid those pesky wires.

Very nice PP result of a well taken photograph!

I personally despise aerial power and communication cables due to their visual pollution. There are many appealing cityscapes that you can’t appreciate due to the excessive accumulation of distracting power/communications cables. PaintShop Pro has a linear scratch elimination tool that works wonders on them though.

Wow....did you ever. I love the improvements and hope to be as good someday in the future if I can. Thanks for showing me that things can be made better with a little effort in the right places.

The second one is so much more pleasing to look at.

well done ! I would have also taken away the vertical post and make the tower on the right closer to vertical.
