Nice image, Bruce! I think I like John's crop suggestion - the right side that was cropped out did not add to the image.

Thanks for the suggestions However with this particular photo I not only wanted to display the stadium but Also the many empty parking places waiting for the guests to fill them up this weekend. I have other more zoomed shots which isolate the stadium more from its surroundings; I'll post a few of these.

I see what you wanted to convey (I was seeing only the stadium), and now understand your cropping. Looking forward to your other images.

Bruce, in your photo, my first thought was that the stadium would fit nicely into a 1950s era Sci-Fi movie. OH NO!! The Aliens have landed!!

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Here's a faux color version, more closely cropped, and taken from due east of the stadium.

P.S. JohnT, I did not mind at all your including an edited version of the first photo in your earlier post.

Bruce, that first one is so freaky sharp it looks like a computer-generated image. Oh! The Silver! Jerry ought to pay you to market a poster of that one.

The false-color takes are groovy, too, but that first one takes the cake.
