After snapping cherry blossoms all day, we made our way over to the Hard Rock Cafe for a late lunch. I forget how interesting Washington DC can be, and had some fun ducking into unusual spots for a quick capture. This building is, I believe, part of the Post Office … and is directly across the street from the Old Post Office Pavilion.
Image taken in Washington DC, USA, on April 2, 2010 with the Nikon D300 and the 18-200mm vr Nikon lens. Shutter was at 1/60, aperture f/3.5, exposure +0.33, pattern metering, iso 200.
Photoshop work included levels, curves and textures.
This image is also available at Lois Bryan at fine art america in an exciting variety of framing and matting options.
My thanks to Princess of Shadows at Deviant Art for the textures.

With the right angle the curvature in the wall along with the shadows gives this hallway a whole new dimension. Great job….Jules
