What would you do with this? It is SOOC.

Exif: 1/250 sec, f/9.0, 60 mm and ISO200

Is it salvage-able? It is not far, I can go back and re-take it. I thought it was neat looking, but I blew the pic :o What should I do next time?

Thanks for any help! :)

Try and ask yourself whats important to the image and try then to eliminate everything thats not when you're framing the shot. What I think is important is the patina on the front of the building and the word but the sky and the telephones poles and other buildings in my opinion and the way I would see it are confusing the image. I hope you don't mind but cropped and used levels in photoshop and just a touch of saturation to bring out some of the elements that would be important to me.

I like the crop, thanks. I didn't like the telephone pole either, tried cloning it out, but didn't have the patience. :?

Thanks!

Well I think the bigger issue here is the original shot/composition. It would probably be better IMO if the shot were more from the front as opposed to the side as it currently is.

I agree. It should have been shot more straight on.
