Just playing around

I found a photo of a building I took a long while ago, and I figured I'd edit it and try to give it a little more (insert word that I can't think of at the moment here x3)
I took this with a tiny compact camera (5 mp and 3x optical zoom. Yeah.), while in a moving car. As you have probably realized, I wasn't really looking to get any nice, professional looking photos that day (some days I like to just set the camera down). But I thought this was an interesting shot nonetheless.
It was taken in Galveston, TX.

Very nice! Galveston has some amazing looking buildings and homes. I have quite a few pics of Galveston of buildings and homes and i have no idea what to do to them. I have a couple of homes and churches that I messed with

The perspective is a very boring one. But, the picture does look good after editing.

NaturalPhotog- I adjusted the curves and used the perspecive tool to make it a little straighter, then messed with the contrast, saturation, exc. I also gave one of the windows a more blueish tint and added some blue curves to the sky.

jrdnjstn- yeah, We drove around the strand and the surrounding homes for a long time and got to photograph some really neat houses, unfortunatly my computer got a virus not too long ago and lost them all ):

happyme- yes, not a great picture but I had fun editing it (:
