Great sense of depth and scale, I can feel the breeze blowing those flags

Great colour of the sky.. Did you use a polarize filter to get such a great blue? or good work by post processing?

@Petr Jaskovsky: I use a polarizer for most of my outdoor shots. Even if there is no effect due to conditions, the polarizer is on as my lense protector. The only time I would take it off would be to gain sutter speed.

Regarding post processing: I do some, levels, some colour saturation and in this case perspective adjustment. However, the colour saturation in this case was just to bring the sky back to the pre-levels adjustment look. Most of my post processing for images I post on the blog are quickly done with low attention to details unless I am planning an enlargment.

Thanks for your comment.
