Before the storm

I won't suggest skewing for that will result with a certain loss of details, but only explain why "almost"! The Horizontal line on the end of the bridge isn't exactly horizontal and the largest lamp leans too much leftwards! Otherwise really perfect composition and spectacle!

Jeff I agree with Pierre: It is very spectacular but the lens effect is too pronounced. I could not prevent myself from trying out the skew option. It you find it pure vandalism I will delete it again.

Many thanks for your rewarding comments.

Anders: thanks. it's indeed better with a straight horizon

I prefer the original one.

It gives more impact on the 'stormy' message, attracts the eye and (knowing the place) gives a good realistic image of the climbing pathway
