2nd place, Light and Shards I - All Angles by Bugzie

My studies for the Geometry Competition were shot around Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia. Federation Square is an imaginative blending of triangular forms, or "shards" made from various modern materials, including glass and steel, and beautiful, ageless sandstones.

An other "how many triangles and rectangles?" picture, the hardest IMHO. Nice building and a good shot. MCsaba

thanks mike, i've made some changes. still don't know what i should have filled that gap with. i wasn't happy with just cropping that side gap out all together. i wanted the planes to be nicely distributed. with the vertical side in sun, i didn't rotate, cos that would have meant cropping out some more space around the main windows. so i skewed the image at the lower right corner. very good suggestion though, much happier with it off the vertical. it really was fun running about shooting "fed square" for the competition.

Fantastic building and great geometry! I particularly like the triangular windows and the different colour threads. Well spotted.
Two small suggestions: crop out the "gap" at far right and perhaps try a slightly rotated image to avoid the vertical "stripe".
Mike.
