Natural History Museum

#35 on explore and appeared on Front Page - thank you!

It looked like a fisheye photo to me at first (because of the round arches on the ceiling i guess), but as you can see, the stairs are straight, so no fisheye ;)

No HDR has been used, i just pushed the contrast and saturation up a bit.
