Our Pittsburgh Flickr Group, a very active group, conducts photowalks together in areas every month or so. This is one of my shots from the day.

Ah, the red doors of Penn-Mac in the Strip District! One of the best places for a photographer to go. I've only been there with my camera once and took some very hurried shots.

Very nice image. I like the addition of the people in the shot to give it some human interest, as well as the colors.

My only red door (and not too good) shot near where you took yours:


You make me want to go back!

marc_714,

Feels like a homey place to shop and photograph. Good composition and great color; did you get verticals straight in post-processing, or were you shooting exactly 90 degrees to building?

the picture was really straight to begin with and I just cropped it a bit. One problem I always have is the geometry of shots. I lose a lot of what I think looks good on the LCD. Photo shop has the lens correction filter but I reall do not like it that much.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Saralonde, check out our Pittsburgh Flickr group. My wife & I have a lot of fun and we are always welcome to new faces
