Thanks, Brian. To be honest I have very few Washington, DC monuments and buildings type pictures... I do think that Sydney is the most beautiful city on the planet and I fell in love with the place when I first visited my then-soon-to-be-wife in early 2000. As someone mentioned a while back in regards to a Bridge-and-Opera-House shot I showed here, there were practically foot prints to stand in to take the shot. All that was missing was the Kodak "photo spot" sign.
As for the oversharpening, I used bicubic sharpening in the rendering and the web resize, perhaps that caused the artifacts you saw. I also did a fair amount of clone-stamp spot removal (damn sensor). Christian Brian Walters wrote: > Hi Christian > > Great early morning light and excellent composition.
