I realize there are already 33 votes, but I would be willing to offer roara a Fence & Handrail delete in Photoshop. So not sure if XJS would allow it, but something to take into consideration when voting. :)

I would offer to others, but not much there in terms of stuff needing deleted/tweaked.

That would be fine with me on the fence. The reason I didn't have the whole building in was because of cyclone fencing and scaffolding on the west side for repair work. The handrail is part of the building and kind of goes with the lines of the Roara! lol

Thanks!

Never have anything "growing out of the top" in a foto of your subject. The image will be farrrr better if its touched up in PS.

Agreed, I didn't have much time or too many angles at the "shoot". There were visitors all over the place and had to take my best shot on the sundown side of the building.

While we're talking about touchups, the flash-reflected brightness on whitediamondrora87's rear license plate could be brought down a few notches. ;) There's always a risk of using a flash to photograph automobiles... reflectors and license plates will grab that light and end up looking overly bright compared to the rest of the photo.

I normally turn the flash off when taking pictures of my car, if it doesn't turn out right with the flash off then I turn it on.
