willow from Chelsea, United States
Wow! It's incredible - I love the contrast of the fluffy, random shaped clouds with the starkly geometric lines of the building. Thanks to Sharon for insisting you post it and to you for creating it! I'm finally back and looking forward to catching up with everyone. Hope your holidays have been great!

The blues in this picture: they are beautiful, on the glass and in the sky. I love how the clouds seem to be surrounding the building, with a bit of blue in the middle. looks like the eye of a hurricane. This is a really cool shot.

Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
I don't wish to take away from this great image (and it fully is wonderful) - but I have to share that the sky and reflection at center do resemble that creature that lives on 'The Donald's' cranium.

Cool shot, I love reflections so it would always appeal to me. Now are they open windows or resting points for Batman cos I've visions of Adam West taking a breather halfway up? ;O)
