I've always liked this pic, but I am not quite sure why...
Took it on April 2003 with a Canon point and shoot.

I like it too :D
The sky is alittle blown out, but you could always change out the sky. What building is it and where did you take it?
I like how you composed it -- both sides aren't the same, but pleases my eyes.

Chip. I can see why you like it so well. IMHO it is a way nice architectural
photo. :thumb:thumb:thumb Sweet forms and angles. Dramatic comes to mind.
I love the strong lines. All the 90's angle, the rounds, the verticals all merging in a wonderful way.
Thens theres the really appealing forced perspective. Everything all neatly
balance within your framing.
This building seems to have something to offer everyone. :D
Did I forget to mention the texture of it?
Theres a good chance for sure that you could come up with other BW tensions
to make this image even more yet. A little more cloud definition would be nice.
Thats my speal and I'm sticking to it. :clap

Thanks guys!
Unfortunately, that's the ONLY copy I have of that image.
I tried to duplicate it in 2007, 4 years later, but it just isn't nearly as good.
It would have helped if I'd remembered that the 2003 Canon G2 shot was in landscape mode. The one below is Nikon D50.
