Very interesting perspective. I first thought you had cut out the upper right-hand corner in PS. On a black background (gallery perspective), with the angle of the building and the black triangle, it really enhanced the overall angle of the buildings. I then realized that it is a silhouette over another building, which made it even more interesting to me. #1231766David K. Patton January 27, 2010
Thanks Mark. I liked building #3s shadow as well. If I upped the fill level you would have been able to see the buildings features, but I liked the black silhouette. #8334269Kathryn Wesserling January 27, 2010
Ditto to Mark's initial reaction. Good treatment on your part, imo. The black triangle kind of reminded me of those little corner holders in our photo albums (b & w photo days!) Lordy, lordy - did I ever just age myself! lolllllMan or man - we all definitely need to do a Detroit Architecture Meet-up one day soon! (and a Lighthouse Run, and a Rural Outing, and a Zoo Trek! lolllll) #8335228
