The clock tower II, showing ten to ten, it already had been about three hours on the road to an eleven hour drive to Adelaide. The tower looked majestic standing in the middle of the road.

what do you think?

I finally found out which town was it, its Camperdown Victoria.

"
Central is the 103 foot high Gothic Manifold Clock Tower, built 1897, which sits in a wide Elm lined median between the dual carriageways of Manifold Street, named in honour of one of the pioneer pastoralists. Tower, avenue, Boer War memorial, Soldiers' memorial, memorial cross and JC Manifold statue are all listed on the Victorian Heritage Register.

Hi Kamran

Good angled pov on the clocktower with a marvellous warm cold colour contrast & superb ues of partial desaturation. Well done!

Hi Kamran,
Never been there, but the way how you present this looks very nice and the old looking touch you gave to it with a minimum on colours sure looks good. The grain looks suitable here just as the high key white points. Blue gradient looks good and gives a strong touch to the image in contrast....i like this.

hi Kamran
excellent perspective and wonderful sky in your composition.
Beautiful architectural image
regards, Bane

Hello Kamran,
This picture has a surprisingly strong impact on me. I like the perspective of the tower and the colours looking like a faded old postcard. You've done a good job on this.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Kaman.
I have been away from Trekearth for a while. I like your shot here, especially the desaturated effect you name chosen. As others have written here. it certainly creates the feel of an old postcard, particularly with the subject you have chosen.
Well done and thanks for sharing.
Mark .

You have captured the most vivid and wonderful hues and textures with deft and well nuanced lights and colours. the architectural beauty is superb

Hi Kamran,
Nice symetrical shot. i tried a WS to remove the noise in the sky and enhance a little bit the contrats of the picture.
Have a nice sunday.
Cheers
Marc

Hello Kamran, I have to agree with the others who said that you created an old post card look & a very effective one at that. The desaturation has worked really well. Any idea where it may have been, your title suggest maybe not. :-)).
Well done
Thanks
Santo

Hi Kamran,
This is definitely a very good photo with excellent sharpness on the subject and the gradation of blue sky. You have done the right thing to deviate from the rule of the third by putting the tower in the middle and minimise the effects of perspective distortion. Excellent and TFS
