It's hard to make interesting shots of architecture. I like the bends here. Do you use post-processing much? It seems this could be somewhat more dynamic. Did you catch this with a fill flash? Or is there a reflection coming from near your position? It is making a sort of offset on the posts that looks like blur... Nice idea! #1550108

Hi. I was staying in a condo in Charleston and this was the balcony on the next building. I was just experimenting and taking shots of the courtyard. I really didn't do much to it. Basically I liked the curves and colors. It definitely could be brightened and cleaned up. I didn't use a flash. It was a pretty bright morning. I tend to use a flash anyway but not in this shot.

Thanks for your interest. I'm taking a lot of classes and learning as much as I can since this is all pretty new to me. #10881790
