Very nice composition, the DOF, detail and color are all oustanding #1477268

Interesting view and perspective, Howard; very creative. I'm afraid that all those buildings make me nervous, however; my nearest neighbor is over 1/4 mile away. BTW - What does the reference to the tower not being rubbish mean? #10247313

Thank you Art. I've updated the description to include that the photo was processed using Color Efex Pro 4.

Paul. Thank you. The many buildings also add challenge because there is a lot of potential distraction/noise.

The rubbish comments was an inside joke from our trip. The background... In the movie 'In Bruges' Colin Farrell is sitting outside of a bell tower very much like this one and is asked if he had been to the top of the tower. His reply is 'Yeah, its rubbish'. #10247492
