Again, this was taken handheld. So hopefully the pic is sharp enough.

Ok let me admit some faults in this picture...........the top of the "dome" is slightly sliced off. Actually i have no choice because the original pic is slanted and i had to correct it. Thereafter, I have no choice but to sacrifice the top of the dome.


Either that or live with the slant..............nah.

I like this one. The missing top is almost unnoticeable, if you haven't pointed it out, I wouldn't have noticed.. I like the depth of the picture!

I think it's beautiful. I'm always impressed by the sharpness and clarity of your shots, especially the night scenes. I have started calling it 'swotz sharpness', and recommending it to others.

Yes it is sharp and I also like the clarity.
However, I do think that the contrast is a tad dull...and that a little bit of shadow lighting would be nice to give it a brighter, more alive feel.
