Reflective building

I like this but I don't. If that makes any sense. I like the branches of the tree cracking there way throughout the picture from the right side. But I am not to sure that I like the building behind it, I am not much on the more modern architecture. But the lighting is done well as always, but I couldn't give it any less than five stars just because I didn't like some of it.

Nice capture. I like the reflections is the building. I like the way you framed the photo were the building took up the whole shot. Nicely done

This is an interesting departure from you usual pictures! The barren tree in the foreground really adds to the overall effect of the mirrored building. Nicely done!

I feel your pain on the root canal, I had one a couple of years ago. An experience I won't forget! :( But think, if it wasn't for that. You wouldn't be sharing this wonderfully composed architeture. I really like the tree in the foreground, it adds a nice touch of nature to the reflections in the building.

hmmm...not sure why this photo rated so highly, it's not nearly as interesting or compelling as some of your others! sorry :(

Based on your other works, I'd love to see what you could do if you used a tripod and spent a little more time taking a several photos of the same spot, from different vantage points and at different times of the day...your landscape photo of the old wagon is great, would like to see more like that!

This is very nice. I love the geometry of the building set off against the noisy randomness of the tree. Very nice. Perhaps if the top corner of the building were visible it would add interest. Just a thought. Nice.

Shapes and color, love the whole look of this piece Low! Excellent clarity and composition. The reflections are wonderful! Great way of making the best of a bad situation-Root Canal-Ugh! Great work Low!

Comment from angel on a dark path


I like the overall blue tones of the sky and building and the silvery grey of the intricate limbs of the tree...but beyond that this doesn't say wow to me.

Comment from celticvodka


The Blue colourscheme impresses but as you said there is no real story there.The window reflections are interesting but due to the nature of the subject( dark building) don t outline well.
Would not be in position to take such a good shot myself after coming from the dentist...

Great shot. Having done a reflection shot, I like your angle on this (I'm going to have to try it in Ottawa this summer). I like that you can't tell where the tree ends and the reflection begins. I'm not sure on the building - I think it adds to a country vs. city contrast, but I think just the tree would be cool for a nature vs. man contrast - I guess it depends on what point you want to get across.
