I was just packing up the camera and tripod and about to cross the street back to the car, and saw this. The images never end! Exposure: 1.3 sec. at f/8, ISO 80.

The Spokane County Courthouse, built in 1895.
See those two ugly parking meters in the foreground? Neither do I, thanks to Lightroom’s spot removal tool, set on “heal” mode, with a bit of touch-up with the adjustment brush. Other Lightroom work includes a large, wide, elliptically shaped radial filter over the building to give the main subject more warmth and emphasis, some color mapping and sharpening. The perspective was a bit difficult, and for the lens I used -1 distortion, -20 vertical, and +10 horizontal, with chromatic aberration removal and a purple defringing setting of 2, necessary due to the blueness and contrasting branches.

The Spokane County Courthouse, built in 1895.
The rich color of the old brick, the glow of the interior, and the composition of the ornate doorway with windows and shoveled pathway make this one of my personal favorites. Part of my photo essay “Night.”
