Good set Anis - I hope you didn't bump into anything while taking these upward shots ;-)

Cool shots. How did you put in the halo around the bldg. in shot #1?

I have done architectural photography for a builder for many years -- I think these are outstanding! Great artistry, symmetry, and interesting post-processing.

I just posted the original image for your review and to compare with the shot # 1 I posted.

I had been playing around with the newly acquired Panny and came across the retouching software built-in. after going through a few types of effects I settled on iArt and saved the picture. This particular shot looks very good with the effect applied, more like HDR kind and gives a good saturated image of the main building where the windows and the shadow of the nearby building comes through very effectively.

Not all pictures will look good with this effect. one needs to carefully apply them to improve upon it rather than ruin the original image. There is so much of tweaking material in the Panny that it will take me weeks if not months to get a grasp on.

It is a superb camera and I doubt I will go back to a DSLR anytime soon. Easy to carry, loaded with features and boasting a lovely lens which is ideal for my style of photography. With the price I paid for it I can afford to get the new version every two years.

Thank you for your input and your query. If you have any other questions I would be more than happy to respond to you.
