Makes me think of the photo that was taken from the top of the Freedom Tower in N.Y.C. .

What do you use for post production? I am a pseudo purist but feel I must start embracing PP if I want to stay viable. Trust, I have toyed with the idea of going back to film! I miss film.

I will be in Chicago Saturday to shoot a gig! I love your great city; I have family there and get to visit often. FYI: There is a fun event going on at Montrose Beach, Whisky, Wine and Swine.
Your work is great. I like how you use all the tools. I really enjoy the results but have no aptitude or desire for photo manipulation outside of the lab. I am just waiting for 35mm film to come back in Vogue. LOL
Happy Snapping!

Location
From the Sydeck of the Willis Tower Chicago, ILTime
Late afternoon.Lighting
Take a shot like this with no sun hitting the glass, and place the lens as close as possible to the window to minimize reflections.Equipment
Nikon D700 with Nikon 16mm f/2.8 fisheye.Inspiration
I always wondered what affect a fisheye would have from a vantage point this high. I was hoping to get a curvature of the horizon affect and was right,Editing
Very little, just brought up the saturation a bit.In my camera bag
Nikon full frame DSLR, Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8, Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8, Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8, Nikon 16mm f/2.8 fisheye.Feedback
Shoot later in the day to avoid the harsh light and to get some shadows. Place your lens as close as possible to the window to minimize any reflections.
