Thanks Brent, as I said below, the balconies are missing on the end three, plus other unfinished bits. I may try cloning them over and distorting. That would be a challenge!

Should consider showing your piece to the people that do the advert? Looks better than theirs!

Like Miro, I don't like the houses either but your ad would certainly tempt me to at least go and see them. Really excellent!

Very nice Bruce, I would buy one but I am ex banker! :(

Thanks Alistair and Miro. I agree Miro, but what was there before was dreadful boring 60s nothingness. They will appeal to rich bankers for the odd weekend - oh, wait a minute...

Your job here is very good, but I don't like the houses. Looks could and sterile despite the pleasant light, but as a gift, I could accept one of these:-))

Fantastic light Bruce and a great advert for these houses. And the font and text just fit in brilliantly. Alistair

It's better than the CAD rendering they have now Colin! (see link in caption below), but the far three aren't finished - no balconies, and other minor bits. Maybe a bit of extreme PS work would sort it? : ) They are in Milford-on-Sea on the Solent. They are a lot better than what was there before, but look at the property on the header of their website. It's down to road, and a horrendous bit of brutal post-modernism. They took ages to sell.

Really nice evening light, this is easily good enough to be in the developer’s brochure – maybe you should sell this image to them :-)
BTW, where is this, just in case the lottery numbers come up ?

I like the nice warm light on the glass balconies and the warmth from the sidewalks...very nice.

£695,000 a shot. Mind you, that may be coming down soon, as they've only sold one... Thanks Catman, I corrected the verticals, and had to clone more sky to do so. It's not the ideal architectural lens at 12mm as the distortion is a bit wavy, but lovely otherwise,

I'll buy it, but wait, what is your asking price?
this a very convincing advertisement Bruce. Your choice of lens makes me jealous as I don't have one of those and that lens really makes the point along with the wonderful evening light.
