no escape...

i found a new vantage point at the top of a parkade... got to see some buildings from a perspective i would not otherwise get... a fair number of older buildings mixed amongst the new in downtown Toronto... this was one of them :)

a misty skyscraper shot in my other album...

[Katie]

Very cool. Timeless shot.

[Kerri]

Cool shot

[TC]

Love the texture and contrast! fav

[Donna]

love this especially given how you processed it...

[jayn]

Like the processing in this

[KWind]

Great processing. I like the grittiness and brick lines/textures.

[Tamzin]

My favourite type of building - love how the processing has brought out the battered brickwork

[dh (delena)]

I like the contrast of the light and dark windows against the texture of the brickwork.

[Kazzy]

Great b&w - hard to tell it's from 2013...could be from a time gone by!

[aurorajane]

Got a great slightly eerie feel to it.

[Violeta]

My God!!! This is simply stressful, I feel like I'm in a horror movie. Another fav! I like these new shots, you found a great new view indeed.

[Katia]

great catch of the atmosphere of that building! :)

[Jess]

Beautifully eerie!

[Sheila]

Has an old city look.

[Linda]

Wonderfully gritty!

[David]

Fab! A pre-sert in Silver Efex or did you do extra work on it? Fav anyway!

[❀ Lynn]

Nice vantage point.

@yrhenwr tx David! i started with the high contrast preset, but then did a fair bit of tweaking... upped the whites, as i recall, and the brightness and texture... added a vignette and played with that a bit too... i always play with the sliders a lot - which is a drag if i decide i need to re-edit for some reason because then i have to remember exactly what i did :)

[Ingrid Budge]

Love this, reminds me of "physical Graffiti " cover. Great dirty textures
Fav
