PotW - 24 Nov. 2009...

After going through all the shots of the past week, I have selected the following image from zafra52…so congratulations.

The post processing of this shot has given it a completely different prospective, by eliminating the facial expression from the people and also has a Lego feel about it. It most probably has limited use, but I believe it works really well in this instance.

As they say, locatio, location, location. But in this instance we also have the wonderful paint effect that is reminiscent, in a modern way, of Monet or Manet.

Love it.
