Shot this from Brickell Key (small man-made island).  This was on the backside of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel (where I shot that Bugatti in the Transportation board here on the forum).

Nice colors, Roy.  You may want to see if you can minimize the barreling from the wide-angle lens so the buildings on the left and right are a little straighter/vertical.

Thanks John, I did use 100% lens profile correction in LR...here's what it looks like un-corrected:

Here's what no-correction vs. 100% correction looks like using this 14/2.8 lens...it does produce some strong mustache distortion, but the profile almost entirely corrects it.

Roy, I do not see a difference between the two images you posted - are you getting the corrected version linked correctly?

Yes, it's right...click on the attached version in my last post...focus on the water horizon...see how it dips in the middle?
