Version 1
Unfortunately, most of my shots of the Denver Performing Arts Center didn’t come out. Even my shot of Sam turned out blurry. Which sucks because it’s a shot of him laying on the ground just after taking the picture he posted earlier. Of all the shots I took, this is the only one that had some nice geometry. Sam agreed to play with it a bit since I couldn’t photoshop myself out of a paper bag. This is my favorite version of what he tried.
Version 2
This is the same shot, w/o so much contrast.

And this is the original with just some basic clean up work.

I really love the geometry here. That structure is one of my favorite architectural features in Denver and the angle you capture here is a lot better than the roof shot I was trying to get at about the same time.
As for the processing, if people hate it blame it on the remixer.
I like the geometry, too. Just seems a bit busy to me.
That isn’t a venue that lends itself naturally to minimalism.
