The Scaffold and the Rose

Rouen – August 2005

The building was very dark in the original image as the camera metered for the white sky, so I pushed the luminosity a bit, which results in the strange colors and texture. Hope you’ll like it.

I love it. Cool effect.

Very nice. It’s almost Monet :) (but he was an impressionist, and painted the Rouen cathedral at different hours of the day!)

Perlimpinpim: Thanks for the comparison. :)

Beautiful shot. Creates a dark mood that fits perfectly for the architectural style.

John: Thanks, I take it as a rule now not to discard a shot before it’s been given a chance in Photoshop.
