The Core On A Sunday

A photo taken in downtown Calgary this past spring:

Has a real grungy feel about it.

I agree with MA. Much of Canada looks grungy when the snow is finally starting to leave. :)

The reflected light and the B&W treatment make this shot. Very cool.

I like this rendition VERY much! The only think I would do here is burn all 4 corners by 10-20%. The left corners need it the most imo, then the top right corner then the bottom right. That would complete the image for me.

I like it too. Quite HDRish, especially the shadows on the row of shop fronts on the left.

It looks like you've applied a white vignette?

Beautiful beautiful filter and image.

Thanks for the comments, all! It is a white vignette, Marko and Tim, so that is easily removed. Bambi, that part of downtown is a bit grungy all the time.
