I never shoot color, so these play things in color are a real challenge to me. I tend to go overboard on colors. And thus:

Someone commented that there is a lot of texture in the sky, but I chose to ignore that, being that this is a picture of a house with the sky as background as opposed to a picture of the sky with the house as foreground.

You are welcome to play in monochrome, too! The subject could also be the sky against a silhouetted building and trees, too – some have taken that approach.

Yeah, I know. :wink:

Monochrome, I would focus on the lights in the window and the street … with some masks and selective adjustments.

It definitely draws the eye to the window – someone’s home.

Actually thought of someone standing in the street below the window wondering what would be inside, something like The Exorcist poster or some other horror movie … :wink:

I kept getting white flowers on the trees with the raw so went with the jpg and did a quicky in gimp

Nice – but there are no flowers of any kind in the picture.
As you probably noticed, the LX7 does not embed a full-size JPG, only one limited to about 2000 pixels on the longer side.
