RSC (Widwed131021)

My effort for today's Wide Wednesday is the 1932 Shakespeare Memorial Theatre in Stratford Upon Avon.  Much as I like Art Deco,  I can't find much to like about the exterior of this particular building.  The square tower is a ~2010 addition from when an extensive refurbishment of the interior was done.     Just as I had taken enough images to get something for my blip I met Technophobe who had had a similar idea for what might work on a damp Warwickshire afternoon.  We came to the conclusion that neither of us really liked the outside of the building.

I shot this blip with my Canon M5 (crop sensor) and the 11-22mm M series lens. With me looking up toward the building, I've tried Perspective EFex and aside from the curvature on the tower, I quite like the results.  I'll assume that can be fixed too if I were to RTFM :-)

The swan in the extra was waiting patiently as I swapped lenses on the off chance I might have had any spare lunch ... I didn't so he waddled off in search of a softer touch.

I'm looking forward to seeing your entries,  some Southern hemisphere blippers have already posted their images and I can see several spot on for the theme(s) and well photographed.   I'll do my usual, star and comment on all of them, so you will know I have seen your entries and award the favourites tomorrow (Thursday evening UK time) which should give anyone on the west coast of the USA time to get their blips uploaded too.
