This is my old picture (scanned) at Dili City, East Timor in 1993 (now as a capital city of East Timor), sorry the picture's quality is not too good.
The building with surroundings by nature was Governor House when East Timor was one of Indonesia's province maybe now has become a President House. I dont want to talk about politic between Indonesia and East Timor, i just miss this exotic place with nice coast along the city, i was here for one month on my office duty in 1993 but unfortunately there are only few pictures taken. I hear from my friend that the building has restored and added some new buiding on each sides, maybe TE's friends have that restored picture and i'll be glad to see and compare it. I hope Indonesia and East Timor still on friendship and maybe sometimes i can visit Dili city again.


best regards

Straighten, crop, noise reduction, sharpen, auto contrast.

I just used noise reduction in Photoshop since I don't have Noise Ninja on my computer, I use DxO and it requires an unprocessed file.



For sharpening I use both smart sharpen and Luko's method for sharpening dark and light pixels separately. I basicall use only steps 2-5 and in this case, I set the opacity for the darken mode at 50% and fot the lighten mode at 7%.
