this is pretty neat, but I might have given this a 90 degree turn and cropped of the words. but relevant and colourful!

King said 343 days ago:

Thanks, Ana.

This is a crop of a larger image. I only have two things to submit for this theme without taking the time to go out and shoot something--which I can't do. I like the other building photos, including your early submission.

Sometimes, as you know, it is disadvantageous to submit a photo that is similar to others, especially when the other images are superior.

No matter, I just wanted to share this. This was taken in Montreal.

Great!!, Love the colors and the distortion.

Interesting variation on the theme. It's subject isn't really abstract, but the object that you are photographing is. Sort of a reality through abstract. The only thing that disappoints me about this image is the grainy/digital lack of quality. Oversharpened, maybe? Overall great shot and wonderful color variations.

ryanrahn said 343 days ago:

Ah, a crop would account for the pixelated look.

Maybe if youd straightened the reflected building, and cropped out the flag this would be a better composition. Its also a little noisy

Formalism is the antithesis of abstract, and nowhere is formalism more prevelant than in architecture.

King said 342 days ago:

@zorilla...once again you lift my spirits. Thanks, dude.

wonderful colors :)

I love that the lines on the building break up the many different colors. I don't know if that was intentional or not but its very nice. Well done
