I mixed up a couple of filters in manipulating this picture; HDR and ORTON. Photo has been taken in the town of Acuto, really small countryside, known only for being the living place of the first Italian Astronaut in the Columbia Space Shuttle.

You did a great job with this one. Evenly filtered, not too bright, not too dark. Love the gray of the front wall here.

Cool mixture Ed. Norton and FDR make a great team. Just the right touch of each. Brings out the textures so well. I can tell the editing bug has bitten you. It is contagious.
Good post.

Ed - I like the composition of this photo, especially the angles focusing toward the center, with an arched door on a lighter colored wall at the center. The textures are nicely portrayed with the filtering you did. Excellent! Thad

The Orton effect and the HDR works well together in this pic. Nice work!

And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

Those clouds really set off the buildings ... the pale blue door / window caught my eye. Love the combo of effects you used. Very well done Ed.

I wish I had you knack for doing this type of image. Mine are always over done in my opinion. Excellent, Ed.
