The muse to the right of the St. Louis Art Museum main entrance as it appeared at dusk. The building is lit by a sodium vapor streetlight and the statue by skylight and tungsten. Auto white balance from Nikon draws some heavy flack in reviews, but I think it does a remarkable job interpreting perceptual colors. A picture I took in January this year does not have the black railing showing at the foot of the statue.
Monochrome was processed in Nik Silver Efex Pro using a green filter equivalent to Wratten #61 and toned sepia/blue in Lightroom 3.
