Welcome to this week's Post Processing Challenge #379

I wanna thank @Kerrowdown for picking my photo and offering this chance.
This one shouldn't be that tricky IMHO..It's a recent long exposure of the City Hall...

Good luck to all and remember have fun.

The Challenge will run until Sunday 25th July 2021 @ 12:00 GMT

I'll get the ball rolling...

I don't know what was supposed to happen. Therefore, I processed it to my taste.

I like seeing different approaches so far...

Here's one.

**Michail_P** · 07-24-2021, 02:38 AM

Still a day to go..Let's see some more tries! Hope the photo isn't that boring

It's sad that one and the same people are involved in this. We need to come up with something to expand the circle of participants, so that it does not work out - you are for me - I am for you. The topic itself is interesting and informative. Only a dozen participants, but sometimes it comes to a thousand views.

Couldn’t agree more. I’m glad to see that some people participate regularly. There must be a core in order to expand the circle.
Anyway, #379 is now closed. Thanks for the participation everyone. I’ll be viewing the images in a few hours.

So, maybe this wasn’t so hard, as I see a lot of interesting stuff going on here. Of course I’d have included every try I see here today, we’re not a tax office and this is supposed to be fun.
@Kerrowdown, I like your style, very nice color management.
@Fdooh , the contradiction of the deep blue and the red lines is definitely a good idea.
@mariwalt, I like the way you treated the houses in the background, they’re complimenting the scenery.
@shiner, balanced approach, nice, naturalistic color and I wish that sky was real that day.
@tuggie76, maybe a little too warm for my taste, but definitely vivid and colorful.
@jmacias I am a fan of the low contrast experimentation. I think it’s worth it here. I like the framing.
@noelcmn great game. Very well done. Maybe I would have done something similar. Balanced and close to the real thing. As for the bw option, tbh I find it a little too dark.
@xs400, I cannot see any attachment, Idk what was the issue.

Great, distinctive tries. My taste is very much leaning towards @noelcmn ‘s color approach. Congrats.
I’d choose @mariealt and @jmacias to follow. Can’t wait to see the next challenge. I’d attach my try but tbh I haven’t made up my mind around this photo yet. Good night everyone. (It’s 00.26 in Greece).

Congrats noelcmn!
