Lonely Rock

Shot of Downtown Vancouver from Stanley Park during the blue hour. I'm not sure what type of -scape I would consider this? Cityscape?

 

Shot with 10-22 @ 22mm, f/11, 4 seconds, ISO 100 on tripod, 2 second timer, live view. I actually bracket the shots, but too lazy to do a layer mask. All pp done in LR3.

 

Edit: Made some changes to the photo in CS5. Decided to straighten out the buildings via lens correction due to distortion from the angle the shot was taken in relation to the building, did a subtle RGB cuves adjustment, darkened the exposure of the water and sky slightly, added slight contrast, capture and creative sharpening done in CS5 instead of LR3. I was going to do some layer masking, but I then realized that I didn't bracket this exact shot. Previous processed shot below.
