Fenchurch Facade
The concept of this image was to fundamentally show the facade of the magnificent building by highlighting the curvature of the outer structure and to use the ceiling lighting in the offices as miniature patterns against the darkened facade.
To achieve my vision I used selections, layer masks and gradients in Photoshop and control points in Nik Silver Efex Pro to create artificial lighting to draw the viewers eye around the facade of the building.

entry description
20 Fenchurch Street aka The Walkie-Talkie is located in the London Business District. The original RAW file was captured in April 2016 and taken on a day when there was complete blue sky, therefore lacking any clouds. I recently started work on a vision I wished to create for a futuristic fine art architecture look.The concept of this image was to fundamentally show the facade of the magnificent building by highlighting the curvature of the outer structure and to use the ceiling lighting in the offices as miniature patterns against the darkened facade.
