Bear in mind that this pic seems to have been taken in the evening - note the lighted lamp post. I like the idea that the clock tower is in deep shadow, although, on my monitor, it and the surrounding buildings look a little dark. If there were any adjustment to the shadows it would be very minimal. Pretty nice, Boris - a nice travel pic.
