| August 21, 2009 @ 8:34pm | Rick, I just looked at your Getty gallery. You have quite an eye for the unusual angles and abstracts. Your waterlily and people images are great, too.
Is the bird in your avatar your pet bird?

| Getty Villa | August 22, 2009 @ 6:43am | that is one beautiful black and white image! How did you manage to capture such a range of tone (multiple exposures blended - HDR)?
I am also very impressed by your unique choice of viewing angle which has managed to capture the beautiful soffit overhead and yet also captures most of the other architectural elements giving the viewer a sense of place and grandeur.
As a practicing architect I can't help but ask if you have an architectural background or are an architectural photographer - well done!

| @Pablo | August 22, 2009 @ 9:03am | Pablo, thank you...No architectural background here. I place the camera on the ground for this shot. It was shot in RAW. I cropped a lot of the foreground and converted it to b/w in Lightroom 2 and tweaked the color filters. It almost has an IR look to it. thank you again! Rick
