Debra - this is incredible. It works so well. Great angle and perspective. Building looks quite surreal. Love the contrast of the hardness, lines and mono of the building with the soft sky and clouds. Great job. #260101

BTW, I took this from the top of a parking deck next to the building, which I think helped give it a different perspective. As usual, though, a security person showed up shortly and kindly asked me to stop taking pictures!! :-) I still have a couple more to post after this one, though! #1446998
