    Great architectural shot. I think I might have tried to oncrease the contrast in order to make the shaded area darker and make some of the objects in that area less visible (ie try to make it less “busy”... as I feel this type of shot is about simple forms and shapes). I would also like to have cut those speakers down! But it really is a fascinating image…

    Wow, crossing diagonals, concrete lines with metal curves, intricate detail, cloudless chromium blue sky… Arlene, this is an architectural feast. No reason to know exactly what the structures are, but they’re talking together and it rocks and I love everything about it. Nice work!

    I like the different shades of silver/gray against that beautiful sky! We were there a couple times this summer, took the train in so we wouldn’t have to deal with parking etc.

    ‘frank’s deconstruction versus minimalism’ could be an alternate title….........sharp shooting Arlene, great composition and use of diagonal image structure for max effect.
