I wish that building didn't have a tree in front of it.

I decided to challenge myself and try doing something that I haven't tried before – photographing landscapes. This is one image of the 12 that I've processed so far that I feel is at least good enough to share. Good landscape images are not easy and I have great respect for people that make incredible landscape images. I hope to get better with practice...

Wow that's fantastic!

Was that light painted? The exposure is excellent!

I'll second that emotion ;-)
Great shot!

Thanks gents.This one is growing on me. I'll be very honest and say that the "darkroom" post process took me quite a few hours before I was happy with it. The image was busy with no real focal point so it took a fair amount of dodging/burning to get it to a place that I was happy with it.

Does "darkroom" equal PS?

Does "darkroom" equal PS?

Yes, it does. My self imposed rule for PS is that I don't do anything that couldn't be done in the traditional darkroom. Nothing is moved, added or taken away. I use the dodge, burn and simple contrast adjustments to try to get what I'm after.
