My challenge this week is "to get a different shot of Salford Quays that is unusual, different and yet you can tell it is the Quays". With my long lens I zoomed in on the tower and then slid more sliders and used more adjustment layers than I can remember (a mixture of LR PS and ColorEfex)to end up with this. Here's a link that shows the tower.
