Lost in Architexture

While those building may look to be directly behind him, they are actually across the street and several blocks away... I am thinking this may be my shot for this weeks street photography challenge which is: "Be aware of the way the camera compresses a three dimensional world into a two dimensional plane and use that to your advantage" originally set by Nick Turpin

My main album has a water splash shot to cover me off for both "get pushed" and "one night stand two"

i like the composition and processing.
my free trial for silver efex expired. i don't think i can live without it;)

[☠northy]

@paulaag i KNOW! i was a lost soul my first day of the trial ;p

[paula goff]

@northy , i may just do the whole bundle. I used Aperture so it's not horrible......expensive, but not horrible. have you tried the color efex? it is good too.

[☠northy]

@paulaag no i haven't tried the colour efex... i started looking at one of the tutorials and got distracted and never went back to it... not really a colour person, and at least a couple of the colour tools seemed more about HDR than anything else which i don't think is madly me...
