Saint Anne's Cathedral in Belfast city centre. The foundation stone was laid in 1899.

The 40 metre Spire of Hope was added in 2007.

(Reworked from scratch 1 August 2010. I have tried to retain the slightly off-colour sky as I liked it.)

Best viewed large.

Thanks Jonny. Yeah, again somewhere I must re-visit too. I really only got a couple of "traditional" looking shots. I think there may be some great architecture round the back.

The sky was brought to you courtesy of DxO Optics and some Lab colour fiddling with curves in Photoshop :).

Good choice on the sky. This one is lovely:)

Thank you :) I prefer the sky in this too.

The sky was the same as in the original photo, it wasn't added in. I just managed somehow to pull those colours out of it.

Sky is better in this one. Also if you apply a tilt shift effect you could make this an awsome minature fake.

Thanks Edi :) I've seen the tilt shift look and it's something I'd really love to try out... Maybe on this one :)

There's a fairly basic way of faking it after the shot in Photoshop here,

It's not as good as a real tilt-shift lens but I don't have the £1200 to spend on one.
