You HAVE TO see this IN LARGE! Definitely a great shot that transports you to a another place and another time. The composition is spot on, with accent elements between windows, sky, road, and especially the hanging lantern that are perfectly balanced in form and color. Officially, this is the second Thriller chosen from David Giral -=ThePretender=-. The other was another stunner from April 24, 2007.

Curious in many ways about this shot...aside from the HDR processing being very "off", why is this done in HDR to begin with?. And tilted? Oh, it just occured to me...maybe it's falling off the plant stand. If you really want to, you can see it fall IN LARGE.
