Reaching UP

Description


I loved the little 'missing' square which revealed itself to me after I viewed it on the PC.
I went back the other day to see what it was and it wasn't visible again no matter where I stood.
Image slightly sharpened and the colour slightly enhanced.

Fantastic capture, City Donna! Well done from Old School Paul! #3272507

Patty Razonable September 06, 2006

Maybe the little squares are reflections from another building? Excellent composition, Donna!! #3272539

Manuel Barrera September 06, 2006

Wonderful capture, Donna. The lights, angles, time of day, sky, all seems to effect reflections. I keep going to the same places at different times and there is always something slightly different, even the camera and lens that I use capture things differently. Wonderful capture, Donna. #3272589

Barbara Waldoch September 06, 2006

Terrific image Donna!!!
You know I love this POV, fantastic composition!!! #3274438

Nadya Johnson September 06, 2006

Great capture, Donna! It's really fascinating how the light and the reflections alter, over time! It's like, if you don't get the photo "Now!" you will never see the same designs and light again! Absolutely true with sunsets and applies to architectural shots, as well. Maybe once a YEAR - at a certain hour, and a certain minute of the day - that little square shows up, but after that is not revealed by the light at all. Kind of magical! Nice shot! #3274844

Karen Engelbreth September 06, 2006

Wonderful perspective, Donna - love it! #3275176

I reckon someone went up there and hung some pale blue card at the window! This is most fascinating! #3275785

A remarkable cityscape, Donna! Although I am a bit concerned about your missing "square"! I am not all that much into 'Spooky Stuff'. Never the less a great perspective, and POV. #3281777

Thank you so much Carolyn - I am actually going to print this out and frame it for my family room.....I don't have any of my photos on display in my home but this one and a couple of my others that I have taken will make a great 8x10 display.
Your feedback is wonderful to receive, much appreciated.
