Cool Surreal looking building at Night in Tokyo

I was looking at some pictures I took last weekend and this one stood out. It look almost like a CG to me!

This is straight out of the camera with no PP at all expect resizing at 800.

What do you think?

That's crazy good exposure IMO. Was this with the kit lens!? BTW, does the Rebel XTi EXIF always show the following for the Device Model?

Canon EOS Kiss Digital X

tumana: yup, kit lens!

Kiss Digital X is the Japanese name for the Xti, I guess it shows in the EXIF! Other than that, the only difference is the KISS X logo on the body! (I even got the 400D/Xti manual with it)

I would still mess with the curves though, but I like contrast.

It does look somewhat CGI. Very cool.

It's a good photo. I like the angle and the sky.

Love it. It does have a very "illustrated" look.
