The Gherkin

Uploaded: July 20, 2010

Description

City of London early June when the leaves were a refreshing green. My husband and I met up with Barbara Mason BPer from NZ and her husband. Had a great day shooting and sheltering from the rain. This is made from about 3 different RAW conversions of the same shot, plus a more dramatic sky to replace a drab one.
I still have plenty more Croatia pictures but felt like a change this morning.

Love the way you have placed the tree in the right corner Kate placing the cucumber in the background. Wonderful colours and dramatic sky. I am having trouble remembering the names of everthing, places, buildings etc., how I wish I could go back and do it all again. #8886144
