Straightened the best I can (I took the picture at a bit of an angle instead of right on).

Yes have to agree with all other comments. One cool shot, something I would not have even thought of taking. Well done Brent. Dennis

These buildings looks to be caught inside the glass, like if they were in a dream. The exposition and WB helps a lot to produce this feeling. A great found and a great photo. endika

Mee too! Goffen

Just splendid, I cannot add anymore than what has already been said

I think this is a fabulous interpretation of the theme and a superb shot. I can't add to what others have already said. For me it's a will-definitely-remember shot. Brenda

I don't know Brent, those buildings look pretty wavy still to me! hahaha! Just kiddin' with you. I love the warped view that the glass creates and even more I love the composition from right where you took the shot. The road seems to continue on like in a Road Runner cartoon, where the wall goes up and the coyote runs smack into it cause he thinks its real!

Ha, Brent I didn't find that kind of WB. I like your picture very much because of that very WB. Kind a picture (distorted a bit) in normal picture. Until they in Oly made a firmware fix for the E3 A-WB I exclusively used 5400 Kelvin in all conditions and have to say it works for Me very well without much PP.

Miro - for mixed lighting at night I often end up with this - yellow sodium vapor(?) in the back and a blue (halogen(?) in the front - I balanced the WB for the "real scene" - the parking lot (the blue light)... The yellow light looks nice and warm but would be interested if you have found a way to balance the light for the whole scene? brent

Very nice and it seems like you have two WB settings in one shot. I really like it a lot.

I See you.....Nice one Brent!

Wonderful stuff Brent. I wish I'd done it! Frank

I like the distortion of the old... kind of like winkles that we older folks develop but wonder how they got there

Great freekin photo charlie

Guest		19-Nov-2008 00:37
Neat Brent. Just wonder if it's worth distorting to get the glass grid dead square to increase the puzzle a bit? Bruce

Guest		18-Nov-2008 21:12
Excellent in all respects. The age of the buildings is accentuated by the distortions in the glass

Great interpretation of the theme!
