What a great start to the monthly meets, it was so enjoyable to meet up with you all again and I very much look forward to seeing all your interesting Architecture Shots this month.

A few of my better ones: http://cid-58258f5ff68f2470.skydrive.live.com/play.aspx/2010%20April%20-%20Architecture?ref=1

I used Adobe Photoshop CS4 Camera Raw to darken blacks for silhouttes, added an S curve, and enhanced the blues/reds/oranges etc in the sky. (And a few other bits n bobs). Because I was shooting with high ISO on my "noisy" D80, I then output the RAW as a JPG and processed the photos through Nik Software's Define (noise reducer plug-in for PhotoShop). On the Guidhall photo I used a HighKey filter from Nik Software's Color Effects Pro. "Define" worked really well, and on my higher quality photos the noise has....gone!

By the way, Adobe launch CS5 on Monday 12th: http://cs5launch.adobe.com/?trackingid=FDKBT

Very nice shots Martin, love the last silhouette and particularly liked the dramatic sky in the second.

Thanks for the heads up on CS5
