Re: PESO: Boston Public Library
Mark, I like the image, but that's not how the Boston Public Library steps looked the last time I saw them! (In it's heyday, J.I.Case - the Racine Wisconsin agricultural equipment maker built a headquarters that looks like the Boston Public Library - based on a postcard the CEO sent home to staff.)

Re: PESO: Boston Public Library
I think it is a tad overprocessed.. but I'm more troubled that I can't see it well enough to really tell that because I cant enlarge it so I'm not able to see fine detail...

I struggled with it for a long while but decided in the end I liked the tension of having it at a slight angle. I can see your point, though. >> http://www.robertstech.com/pages/fotoblog/7da00222.htm -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Interesting angle of view. I like the detail and sublte shades of color in the architectural details. I believe I just voted for this on the PPG . . .

Exactly what I was thinking.
