9th: no traffic today
by

Well, I was driving by today & saw the puddles in the parking lot & the light was flat so I decided I had to get one more shot in...;-) I really like this one more.
In the spirit of Ed Ruscha (every building on the sunset strip, 26 gas stations, etc.) I would really like to shoot this window every sunday for a year...
Frank, you do a counterpart in Germany for a year & we'll do a website!

Inframan, this one is the best! I also like the idea of the one year project. Still would need to find a comparable location. Let's discuss later. Cheers, Frank

I really like the starkness of this image. Nice shot! Helen

Love the reflections in the puddles. Very interesting image, JP.

Nice composition - I like the colors and light exposure!

You're absolutely right. A perspective problem I hope I've fixed. Next time I shoot this it will be with a polarizer & my tripod with levels. ;-)
Frank, you are a master at perspectives. Martin P & I have exchanged e-mails marvelling at the precision of your shots of large building with the reflections.
Thanks for that nudge too.

You did it! Great! As you can imagine I really like these kind of images. Sorry that I cannot fully recall the first versions - only thing I can remember is that it showed the complete building, while I like this crop better. Still I cannot resist to make one comment. I am always possessed by horizontal lines and get mildly disturbed by the slight tilt ... Hope you do not mind! Cheers, Frank
