How cool is this???
I love the contrast between the building of straight lines and muted colors, compared against the funky patterns and colors of the reflections on the right.

Hi Lisa,
Glad you like this photo of the "funky patterns", colors, patterns, and lines! This was the product of one of my self-assignments in which I head out in nice light - in this case, late day - and just see what I can find. I love street photography, so a downtown area is often my choice of locations for a "following the light" project. Lisa, thanks for commenting - much appreciated! #9704344

Love the color and contrast between absolute straight lines and totally distorted reflections caught in the same frame, Kerry. Love it!!!

This is pretty cool, Kerry! Again, thanks for including the settings - your images always teach me 'one more thing' about photography. Thanks to BP for including this one in PF#102. #9717542
