I know the silhouette thing is cliche, but I love how this capture turned out. It's the Lower East Side of Manhattan, as seen from a Williamsburg rooftop. Some color, contrast, and vingnette adjustments done in LR2. Enjoy!

that is a nice shot! Don't worry about the cliche...if people never took cliche'd shots, there would be very very little to look at.

I am really enjoying the orange sky in the lower 1/3...my eyes go straight there.

My only critique if I may, would be to maybe try totally blacking out the silhouette...On the right you can see a few small holes thsat are a little distracting.

It does look crooked, but the angle that the clouds were moving in from gives that impression... The buildings are straight.

Thank you for the compliments!
