In my latest batch of uploaded pictures, these of the Thompson Center at Clark and Randolph in Chicago, I did the processing a little differently. I think most of my pictures were a little on the dark side of things. So, I used shadows/highlights to push the brights down a bit, then used exposure compensation to bump the whole thing up a stop or two, depending on the picture, then used hue/contrast to add a little pop to the whole thing before shrinking and sharpening them. These aren't going to be of the best quality if only because I was shooting at a high ISO in the dark interior space and dark, overcast outdoors. But I think the extra brightness compared to some of my other shots is a good thing. What do you think?

This building is so UFO looking; I love it! A lot of folks don't though. Check out these reviews (how do you write a review about an office building you don't even work in? What exactly are you reviewing?) of the awful conditions inside this Chicago government building over on Yelp!
