Nicely captured, good compo and angle of view which does the structure justice,this place isn't too far from where I live.

If I may suggest it needs a levels adjustment as it is a tad underexposed.

Thanks Jim for your comments and suggestion. I've tried a levels adjustment but, in my inexpert hands, the dish becomes overexposed. If you fancy a go be my guest.

It's definitely an impressive structure, it's many years since I was last there and I had forgotten how big it was. Not far from my house either.

Cheers,

Howard

Hi Howard, as you have given me permission I've played with it a bit and here is the result.link

This was an auto levels adjustment and then I selected the dish with the magic wand tool and lowered the brightness as it was over exposed as you suggested it would be.

I should add I also like the dramatic sky in the image as well.

Best wishes

Jim

Thanks Jim, I'll try that when I get a chance. When I took it I thought it would stand out against the dark sky. Your sky is probably a better representation.

Cheers,

Howard
