Taken from our balcony at Christmas day.

What’s so special about this roundabout on Christmas day? Nothing.  That’s Christmas for you here in the Middle East.

Well, at least we celebrated in our new flat; had some grilled chickens, pork liempo, carbonara, mixed buttered veggies, leche flan and some chocolate mousse.

How I took this shot:

Settings: f9.0 | 30 secs | single exposure (no hdr)
Gear: Canon 7D + Sigma 10-20 + Manfrotto Tripod

Post processing:

• Adjusted contrast
• Sharpened
• Converted in black & white in Photoshop CS4

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all !
