Purchased the Sigma 8-16mm for the trip.

That's a great Wide Angle! Excellent use of the lens and the composition is very strong. If possible I'd try and dampen down the brightest highlights (the very centre circle and the pathway leading away behind), as they pull the eyes in I find.

Great! But what about the library?

Thanks for commenting mcgregni....the sun was pretty much overhead that day and everything appeared flat, so I worked the contrast to put some detail back into the image...I might have another go at it if I get the time.

Thanks for commenting IgorZ...yes I have the Library covered...though it lost some cred after the secret door story.

Purchase of a UWA is always justified - I missed so many photos over the years until I purchased one.

Thank you for commenting reh321...alas, since I went FF it has since been sold, purchased a Sigma 15mm F2.8 EX DG Diagonal Fisheye for my K1 to fill the gap.
