Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Handheld @ 1/6s is fairly impressive!
The 89A is not a filter I'm familiar with: does it let in more or less visible light than a Wratten 89B? (I'm guessing more)

Nice composition, and as Chris has pointed out, the varying tones through the image provide lots of interest. What's with the darkening at the top of the building?

Terrific shot Steve, everything seems to gel in this shot. I bought an IR filter but believe it or not I still have not used it. Boy your shot makes me want to go out right now! :) Any tips for an IR newbie?
cheers

It was nice and sunny and quite warm the day i was there.

The darkening at the top of the main central building is caused by it not yet being completed and is missing the bright shiny bits seen below it.
