I'm glad it's not more rectangular; I think maybe it would look too squished if it were. I remember this image from the summer, Nikki--it's awesome, and really says "Paris" to me! Excellent job of straightening the lamppost. The sepia tones are gorgeous.

I really like this one, Nikki, and have once again learned something new from you. Can you just copy the old discussion when you post a revised photo? As I am revising a lot, that would be great for me.

You know what? I looked at them both again. I have always been thoroughly taken with both shots. The shot captures a strong and utterly engaging story-telling moment, at a wonderful place and from a wonderful perspective. And I know that you changed things and did lens corrrections things and all like that. And I know that you changed the tone too, and stuff and stuff. But really, it's the moment that's important. And I honestly don't know that the second, the finalist, is better really. It is just great as it is originally. I'm pleased though that this finally has been recognized for the wonderful capture of the moment that it is.
