Top of the Temple

To all my POTD friends, I'm actually on theme today!! The theme is working with textures, isn't it? :)

I've been taking so many people pictures lately, when I was trying to think of something to photograph today, I had a hard time. I'm out of the non-people-picture mode, I guess. I drove up by the Bountiful Temple and did a few shots there.

Then, I ran a couple of actions, added some texture, a soft light layer...and here's the finished product.

What do you think?

I bet you could sell that to the chamber of commerce to use as a postcard. Lovely!

This really turned out nice! I like your use of texture, and it's understated enough to complement and not overwhelm or detract from your subject.
