Church at night.

ISO 100, 6s/f4.0 on a tripod, 62mm focal length. Noise elimitation

with dark frame substraction and despeckele. Conversion to B&W with

channel mixer.

you seem to know your photoshop pretty well, i wonder why you didn't take care of the vertical alignment as well. the slanting on the left border is pretty obvious and it is distracting.

nice shot. It could stand to be rotated to the left just a tiny bit-I would like the side of the building to be parallel to the side of the frame.

I don't do Photoshop. I'm using the Gimp on Linux and my technical prowess comes straight from Eric Jeschke excellent Gimp Tutorial page. Believe it or not, I have a bubble level glued on my camera, but I didn't use it at the time of the shot and I also set my camera pretty close to the ground -- two mistakes. When I performed the level correction, I used a simple rotation instead of doing a perspective correction (third mistake I guess.)

Thank you for your comments.

Thanks. The picture has already been rotated to the left so that the ground is level. What needs to be performed, as I now realize, is a correction of perspective...

Wouldn't that be too much cheating though? A rotation is a pretty natural thing to do, akind to cropping IMO. A perspective correction is a bit different, I think.
