The view from my "office"

Well, yes, you have optically 'straightened' the image. Forget what its called, but one click within Lightroom

 

[Cossie]

Try again!

Is this enough gold for you? Churches in Oporto.

If I start putting the contrast back, I may as well use one of the originals... Funny that nobody commented on the biggest change though (which has nothing to do with HDR).

The mid range original...View attachment 99297

Interesting. I think I prefer this one. more character.

Some say Melbourne has four seasons in a day ... not today - great weather!

So we had to settle with this...

Was the exhibition packed? We haven't visited yet but an aunt who was over from Perth in May said it was so busy she almost felt it was a waste going.

This is the last photo (Seville) of this trip. Unfortunately my partner's condition isn't good to the point that we cannot enjoy our holiday anymore. We cancelled Mallorca and Barcelona and will be flying home soon.

Yes, it's a very popular exhibition. The layout (seasons) and size of the rooms doesn't help. It's set up for zigzag queue viewing ... it didn't take long for it to morph into a general mass.

Definitely enjoyable and worth the trip, IMO.

We've come down and combined it with three days of feasting - Italian, Spanish, Chinese, French

Columbia Rd Flower Market

Brick Lane Market - absolutely fascinating will definitely go back and preferably on a day that's a bit cooler (says the person from Adelaide where it really does get hot)

Anybody do a Contiki tour in the early 80s and stay at the Plaza hotel before the tour - the Bayswater area has certainly changed

I did the Trafalgar Tour 1979, stayed at Onslow Gardens.

The view from someone's office...

 

[Cruiser Elite]

............ which is Room 2268 MBS SIN:



And same view view but this time from Exec Lounge 55th floor:



I should add i booked Exec Room at ~S$700 for the nt using $400 Amex travel credit the Ette got with Explorer card - direct booking with MBS at same time was ~S$650 - bit of a haircut but so be it

Our room is HUGE - just sensational - the Ette's only comment was 'Gee what a shame we are only here 1nt and not an extended stay!'
