Front and Center

Front and Center by rubbah_slippahs.
i know, done a million times before. my turn to be tourist.

little black rainclouds were starting to roll in; no pooh-bear in sight. sun was behind a bank of clouds at my back; i was hoping it would pop out to light the balconies, but no luck.

9-frame autobracket, "cloudy" white balance. pushed frames 1-3-7-9 through photomatix, max strength and light-smoothing. curves and sharpening in cs3.

untouched sorta middle frame

May be touristy due to subject, but well done. I like the wide angle effect. The "gravitational" impact of the palace is great and focuses the attention correctly.

You people are driving me crazy. Not only do you show me lots of new photo opportunities around the island, but you show me places that I have to go back to and try again!

I really like the look of this picture. The clouds are intense, just the way I like them.
