Thanks for the kind words, Penny & Kiki. Penny, the blue is that blue. I think it has something to do with the altitude here (~7,300 feet). Kiki, special thanks for all the looks and comments, and I did fix the bit of red. I had slightly rotated the image and my crop left that bit in the pic. Cheers, -mikey

Oh greatness.. excellent white-balance, beautiful light, firm composition. Nice job, PP included. A strangely calm and appealing scene, in particular for that material. Almost surreal. If you ever exhibit or sell this, perhaps clone out the red stripe bottom right corner. (I looked at this 5 times before I noticed. All the other pixels are fine ;))

the architectural abstracts work well here too!! I'm curious if the blue was really that blue - kind of cool though. Penny Street
