City of Cranes - a photo on Flickriver

City of Cranes

            ...and roofs. So many roofs on which solar panels could be installed, but aren't. That's what I thought when I looked down on the city from the Reichstag dome. There are some roofs with solar panels, but not nearly as many as there could be. Especially not the roofs of the governmental buildings, although that could set a good example. But there are solar panels on some public buildings such as the Futurium (which you can't see in this image). Just for fun, I've marked the one roof equipped with solar panels with an image comment, alongside a few Berlin landmarks and sights.

Processing-wise, this is obviously a slider. The early evening atmosphere of that very hot day back in August had been a little dense and somewhat hazy which made the colours in the original image (an HDR made from exposure bracketing) look a little weird, so I thought I'd try something with the sliders in LR, Color Efex Pro, and Luminar Neo. In the original HDR, there also had been some weird tiny spots (quite many weird tiny spots!), and when I noticed them I was pretty startled because I immediately thought of the dreaded sensor dust – which I've never had on any of my Olympus cameras' senors, and of all things, the new OM-1 should have already gathered sensor dust on its very first proper photo outing?!? Luckily, I remembered that I'd taken a few skyline photos through the not very clean windows of the Reichstag dome, and this was one of those images. Phew ;)

Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone, and have a nice week ahead!
