Business district reflections

I only saw this in passing as we were heading back home, so asked the driver to circle the block again, which he gladly did since I think he was having fun helping me take pictures. As William noted, there are still no people in the image, and this was downtown. Very peculiar!

The photo is well taken, the reflection fascinating and the feeling for me remains always the same lightly distressing of science-fiction. Maybe people are invisible because of a magic potion...
