Forbidden City, the former Imperial Palace, also known as the Palace Museum has for beautiful Corner Towers. The style of the towers are unique even in ancient Chinese palace buildings. Which are forever shooting subjects. This picture was taken in late Sept. 2009, since it was very close to the National Day so all the lights were on. The picture was taken with a Canon G9 in auto bracket mode. Then the RAW files were sent to Photomatix Pro, after tone mapping, it was then sent to Photoshop for fine tuning.

A little too saturated in color, but it is a matter of personal taste. I find this picture just fantastic!

Great capture, I would have removed the dust/leaves from the water as they take a bit off the main subject --great processing!!!
