I'd say too many shadows in this one for architecture. Need to balance it out a bit more with more lighting strategically placed.

I don't mind the shadows although the glare from the lighting is a little bothersome. I would hope that a polarizer might tame the reflections in the floor.

My problem is that the lens is almost level but noticeably off. That causes a lot of problems with that lens. If you get it absolutely level, everything is fine - otherwise it gets sloppy with verticals going every which way.

The exposure and color balance look fine.

Good shot. You might want to consider a software program like "DXO Optics Pro". It can be a huge time saver and excellent lens correction tool especially for the 10-22mm when shooting architecture. It will straighten those verticals. You can also batch process images.

There are other programs that can do this but it seems to me at least to be the best. If you take a lot of interior shots it can be a big plus and worth the cost.

I could also suggest that the PSCS Crop tool has a Perspective Correction feature.

That DXO Optics Pro has a rather crazy pricing structure

There are two versions...Optics Pro Standard and Optics Pro Elite. Each has a set price. He would need the "Standard" version. When they first released the program there was a different pricing structure which you may be referring to but its pretty basic now.

If you own a "full Frame" SLR or a higher end camera (Pro model) the Elite version would be needed. It also covers cameras like the 30D, 40D, etc...But if you only own say a 30D or 40D then the Standard version is all that is needed. Both versions work the same way.

The only drawback is the lens/body combinations it supports. That is part of the reason its works so well though. It's calculations are based on a specific lens and camera body for corrections.

OK Thanks for that, i stand corrected and will look again.
