Just discovered something called colour lookup in CS4. Used it to change the colours then rotated 180 degrees.
Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport, terminal 2E. Brand new and really light and airy. Definitely an improvement on the rest of the airport (Terminal 2B in particular is especially dire...)

This 173-acre terminal has 4,780 linear feet (1,457m) of berthing space on 40 feet (12.2m) of deepwater.
The terminal handles containerized and breakbulk cargoes, imported automobiles and liquid bulk commodities such as turpentine and vegetable oil. Breakbulk cargoes include steel, lumber and paper, and a variety of frozen and chilled goods. Talleyrand is equipped with four container cranes, on-dock rail and 160,000 square feet of transit shed space capable of handling cargo in refrigerated, freezer or ambient conditions. Additionally, a 553,000-square foot warehouse stores a variety of cargoes, including rolls of fine and specialty papers, magazine papers and newsprint.
The Talleyrand terminal also offers two 50-LT capacity rubber tired gantry cranes, both of which straddle four rail spurs totaling 4,800 linear feet (1,463 m). Talleyrand's on-dock rail facilities are run by Talleyrand Terminal Railroad, Inc., which provides direct switching service for Norfolk Southern and CSX railroads. The terminal is only 25 minutes from Florida East Coast Railroad's intermodal ramp, and is conveniently located within minutes of interstates I-95 and I-10.

Cincinnati's magnificent art deco style railroad terminal building, now the home of Cincinnati Museum Center, was dedicated on March 31, 1933. Union Terminal was first proposed in the early part of the 20th century as a solution to the chaotic existing railroad system, which consisted of seven lines operating out of five stations. Initial planning began in the early 1900s, but floods, inter-railroad squabbling and World War I delayed the plan until the late 1920s.
New York architects Alfred Fellheimer and Steward Wagner, recognized leaders in the planning of urban railway stations, were hired to design the Union Terminal building. Their first designs were classical in style until Paul Phillipe Cret, a friend of Steward Wagner, was engaged as a consultant and influenced the art deco style of the building. Construction began in August 1929 and was completed March 31, 1933.
Cincinnati Union Terminal stands on a prominent location one mile northwest of the center of the city on land that once was Lincoln Park. Visitors approach the massive, arched, limestone and glass east facade of the building from Western Avenue and Ezzard Charles Drive through a quarter-mile plaza. The building is flanked on either side by curving wings. An illuminated fountain, cascade and pool are in the center foreground. On either side of the main doors, bas-relief figures designed by Maxfield Keck symbolize Commerce and Transportation.
During World War II, Cincinnati Union Terminal experienced unprecedented success. As a major transfer point for soldiers, the station served as many as 20,000 passengers a day. But in the 1950s, the sudden expansion of interstates and airlines led to the rapid decline of the railroad industry. By the early 1970s, only two passenger trains a day passed through Union Terminal, and in 1972, passenger train service was discontinued.
During the mid-1980s, the administrators of the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History and the Cincinnati Historical Society developed plans for a joint museum project. The spaciousness of Union Terminal, coupled with its history and design, made it the top choice as a location for the project. In 1986, Hamilton County voters approved a $33 million bond issue for the restoration of the terminal. The State of Ohio and the City of Cincinnati also contributed to the restoration with grants of $8 million and $3 million, respectively. In addition, more that 3,000 Cincinnati individuals, corporations and foundations also contributed to the building's renovation.
In November 1990, Cincinnati Union Terminal reopened as the Cincinnati Museum Center, an educational and cultural complex featuring the Cincinnati Museum of Natural History, the Cincinnati Historical Society Museum and Library, and the Robert D. Lindner Family OMNIMAX® Theater. On July 29, 1991, passenger train service was officially restored to the terminal. Amtrak, which had been using a small station on River Road as a stop on its Washington, D.C.-Chicago route, moved its service to the renovated Union Terminal.

JFK's Terminal 6, the former National Airlines Sundrome, occupied at the time by Pan Am and United Air Lines. Since this photo was taken, jetBlue used the building for nearly ten years and then built a large new facility for itself behind Terminal 5, to the right of the photo. In 2010 the Port Authority announced that Terminal6 would be demolished to allow jetBlue to expand its terminal and provide international arrivals with Customs.

Malaysia new airport, called KLIA2 (Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2), it's replacing the LCCT (Low-Cost Carrier Terminal). KLIA2 Airport started operations on 2 May 2014 and all flight operations at LCCT were moved to KLIA by 9 May 2014. KLIA2 is built to cater for the explosive growth in low cost travel in the region.
The modern design of KLIA2 airport will make you feel stand inside the luxury building, all the facilities built with high technology feature. It's also integrated with the public transport like terminal bus, taxi service and ERL (Express Rail Link), is the terminal train from airport to the KL Sentral. When I come back home, I just buy the bus ticket to my hometown, it's very convenient and save a lot of time.
The Airport is the place which the people separate and reunion, happiness and sadness were happening everyday here. Each time I come here because I back home and leave home. It's a gateway to going far from your current location, miraculous place. - Max Compose Photography Blog

The Buffalo Central Terminal, built in 1929 for the New York Central railroad company. It had about 200 trains a day came through here. This was at one time the second largest rail center in the United States. This was also the main place where WW II soldiers would go to war. Then the rail service took a big rail decline. In 1979, the Buffalo Central Terminal closed. That same year, a man named Anthony Fedele bought the building for $75,000. He had some events in the building such as floor hockey games, concerts, and Dyngus day. Tony even made an apartment on the second floor. In 1986, he was evicted from the building because of taxes. That same year a man named Thomas Telesco bought the building for $100,000. He only bought the building for the valuables like the clock, office furniture, brass door knobs, or anything that was valuable. During the time Telesco owned the place, vandals would come in and smash anything that was breakable. Then a man named Sam Tuchman bought the building. He stripped out anything Telesco missed. The vandals also kept coming into the building. In 1997 the Central Terminal Restoration Corporation bought the building for $1.00. They have sealed up the whole building from vandals and weather. They have cleaned out the Main Concourse and cleaned out many other areas. They even host many events throughtout the spring-fall months.

Originally built from 1929-1933 as the Union Terminal train station, the building still stands on a prominent location one mile northwest of the city center as one of the last grand scale terminals in the Art Deco style. A masterpiece of planning by architect Paul Cret, who worked with the firm of Fellheimer and Wagner, at its peak, it accomodated 17,000 people and 216 trains daily.
Visitors approach the 10-story, arched, limestone and glass facade of the building from the east through a quarter-mile plaza. The dome is flanked on either side by curving wings. An illuminated fountain, cascade and pool lie in the foreground center. On either side of the main doors, Maxfield Keck’s bas-relief figures symbolize Commerce and Transportation. The inside rotunda of the building spans 188 feet and soars to a peak of 106 feet high. The interior walls are decorated with murals which portray the history of Cincinnati and environs.
In addition to the small Amtrak station, the building now is home to the Cincinnati Museum Center including:
Museum of Natural History and Science
Cincinnati Historical Museum
Cinergy Children's Museum
Linder Family Omnimax Theater
Cincinnati Historical Society Library
In 2007, Cincinnati Union Terminal was ranked #45 on the AIA 150 America's Favorite Architecture list.

Downtown Cincinnati, Ohio. From Wikipedia:
"The Dixie Terminal buildings in Cincinnati, Ohio were completed in 1921 and served as streetcar terminal, stock exchange and office building in downtown Cincinnati. They were designed by Cincinnati architect Frederick W. Garber's Garber & Woodward firm. The main building includes an "Adamesque barrel-vaulted concourse" and "Rookwood Architectural Faience entry arch". The Rookwood tiles were manufactured by the local Rookwood Pottery Company.
Located at Fourth and Walnut Streets, the Terminal was constructed of reinforced concrete and finished in gray brick, Bedford limestone, and granite. It includes two structures: the 4-story south building extending to Third Street, where streetcars entered and left, and the "handsome" 10-story north building, housing railroad ticket agencies, the Cincinnati Stock Exchange, administrative offices of the Cincinnati Street Railway Company, commercial offices and shops.
A long and elaborate arcade runs through from main entrance through the building; shops were located alongside. The building included marble floors, Bottincino marble wainscot, metal trimmings, and "costly brightly decorated ceilings, with fanciful medallions showing little children riding on the backs of various animals".
The terminal was used for bus service after streetcar service ceased in the 1950s. Buses arriving from northern Kentucky crossed the Roebling Suspension Bridge and took ramps from the bridge into the terminal. The ramps were removed and the bus service ceased using the terminal in 1998 . The Cincinnati Stock Exchange closed its physical trading floor in 1976 after becoming an all electronic stock trading exchange but remained in the building until relocating from Cincinnati to Chicago in 1995. It has been renamed the National Stock Exchange".

Dixie Terminal was the Cincinnati Trust where Charlie goes to find out the whereabouts of the $3 million trust fund that he felt he was entitled to. The building is absolutely beautiful and looks very much like the way it was depicted in the movie. In the movie it served as a bank with clerks and desks, while in reality it was at one time a streetcar terminal and is now an office space but it hasn’t lost its grandeur. It was very exciting walking the same path that Charlie does as he approached the desk clerk. My excitement was short lived, though, when I saw the view (or lack thereof) from the window at the end of the corridor. In the movie this window offers a spectacular view of the Ohio River and the Roebling Suspension Bridge, which was the prototype for the Brooklyn Bridge. That view is now totally blocked by the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center. I’ve been to the Freedom Center before and they now possess this wonderful view. Sadly the Dixie Terminal now overlooks the concrete facade of the museum. I was so disappointed because that view, as seen in the movie, was really wonderful and could have been seen all the way from the main entrance. As I was walking around the main corridor watching the people who worked there go about their business I wondered if any of them realized that they were working in a building that was not only beautiful but a location for such an important cinematic event.
