Hi Arvin,
I was captured by the cloudless intense blue sky against those high rise structures...not a dash of sunset color at almost 6PM? Also, it's amazing that you got a well exposed vista of this part of Greenbelt without a visible noise at ISO 800.

Actually, there is a strict prohibition in Makati Business District against photo shooters with dlsr. One has to secure permit to freely roam and shoot the Ayala Malls and high rise architectures and even if you alreaday have permit to shoot, security guards will still apprehend you :o(

It would have been better if you include a little more of the foreground elevated walkway so that it will be less disturbing.

TFS,

Carol
