Here's the thing: when I take pictures of people, a lot of them turn out kind of like I saw them in my mind. Not all of them, but quite a few. When I take pictures of buildings, almost none of them do. Why? I don't know. I guess if I was choosing, I'd rather have it like this than the other way around, but still, it's a little frustrating.
So, here they are. Have a good weekend, in any case. I know I will. If you want to see the others, you can find them here.

Thank you Darryl! (= Love 'em!! They appear so alive. The colour. The light. I feel like I can almost touch them. But at the same time they appear a tad unreal (too pretty to be real) but I suppose that that's because you tweaked them to death. So cool! What's the second one that kinda looks like a church? That's another one for your symmetrical/geometrical batch. The composition is rather lovely.
Hey, I'm glad you like them. Yes, I have tweaked them, but the sky there, in particular, was unreal... the clouds were just insanely dramatic, like I was walking around in a painting. Wonderful. And the second one is a church in the south side of town... the first is the parliament buildings in the city centre, the third is a cafe in the old town, and the last one is a bridge between the main part of the old town, and the very oldest part, a small island with a church and a few other buildings.
Reality is okay, but I like to get just a little more out my pictures...
The church shot is pristine and spectacular. I love it. that's my "framer" of the set. but I love the sky shots too.
The light that night was just amazing. Like everything was covered in butter.
Mmmmmmm...... butter.....
Definitely.... mmmm butter.
Both in food and in light. I love it.
Makes me even more eager to get that repainting job done in my kitchen... the light butter cream that the painter cheated with ain't doin' it for me. I want some richer, sunnier yellow.
Now can butter light backfire and make things too orange?
Well, the real butter light usually doesn't. But it only happens for maybe 20 minutes a day, and I'm not willing to put my camera away the rest of the time. So I can either use a warming filter to take out some of the blue light at the lens or do it in phtotoshop after. And that can make things too orange. I may get too excited and overdo it.
Sometimes I'm just like that.
