Rewrite an ending that fits

in ,

The Lee Plaza Hotel went from a towering symbol of wealth to a towering symbol of Detroit's decay.

Built for the city's rich and powerful, the Lee Plaza still stands today, ravaged by the city's poor and destitute. Like the Michigan Central Station, it is a gut-wrenching reminder of how far the city has fallen from its preposterously prosperous past. The Art Deco landmark also is the site of one of the city's most notorious architectural heists.

Goodbye Photomatix

Goodbye to a software that no longer has a place in my workflow.

I am removing the super HDR look from all of my portfolio images. I just wanted to share an idea of what I am talking about. I like doing HDRs so I had to come to a compromise with myself ;)

Top is the original HDR done with Photomatix and the bottom is the new HDR with Nik HDR Efex Pro.

Let me know what you think. So far the response has been a positive one.
