Thank you for the kind comments! Yes, my building is really spectacular, truly an amazing piece of architecture of which the newspaper is very proud. I seem to walk around there with my camera all the time looking for shots, and I think people have finally gotten used to it. The funny thing is, some people don't even realize what we have there: When I showed the layout people my Atrium image, they actually went out on the landing to see for themselves that we indeed have a glass ceiling, LOL.

What an interesting building you work in, Helen! A seemingly endless source of images.
Another excellent shot. Great perspective and I love the geometric lines.

Great stuff Helen! I was just wondering how you got access to the nuclear power plant when I read your comment. Possibly same heat in the office sometimes ... :-)

Wow, you sure do work around some amazing architecture.
Another great skylight shot.
