The Dallas skyline as seen through glass windows from the 50-story-high Reunion Tower "ball" -- which houses a revolving restaurant. Christmas Day, 2002.

Great Composition. I love your shot. #16692Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019
WOW - I agree great composition! #34642Patricia Marroquin May 26, 2019
Thank you, Sobia and Damian. It was fun having a champagne buffet dinner way up in the sky on Christmas Day. The revolving restaurant made an entire revolution while we were there, so I got a look at Dallas' skyline from all sides. The bars are part of the "ball," which is illuminated with white lights at night. :-) #34645Gary H. Minish May 26, 2019
Very nicely done, Patricia. Perfect composition, just the right exposure and great detail (especially for shooting through a window). An excellent photo and a winner as far as I'm concerned :-) #34707Patricia Marroquin May 26, 2019
Thanks so much, Gary. I took many shots of the skyline, but most had spots or glare on the windows or the composition wasn't quite right. I was pleased that I got at least one good one out of this! :-) #34714Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
