Very interesting subjects. Well presented and processed, Mike!

interesting shots and really well executed - I like the first one but also like the processing of the 4th one - it really fits the history I think.

Great series. The first one is breathtaking.

Thank you for such a kind comment.The lens did most of the work for me.The 14/24 f2.8 is such a wonderful lens to use with very little distortion even at 14mm.
This photo is a 5 shot HDR processed in LR4 and CS5.
kindest regards.
