Glass tower

kraiklyn · 19-09-2009, 3:47 AM

On a visit up to the North Island for work I had time to explore the city for a couple of days.
I managed to capture a photo of this glass high rise office tower block reflecting the Auckland Sky Tower that was situated opposite.

That's a great view! It really works nicely with the huge reflection, well spotted. Just a bit underexposed for my taste, but I like punchy images (usually). Well done!

I really like this, great image and definitely one of my favourites.

I might have cloned out the other building in the background in the very bottom right hand corner, or cropped just above it but thats a very very minor personal opinion.

Yes, my wife entered the shot from inside the tower. It wasn't my favourite place to be as I'm not keen on heights, especially tall structures! Still we had a few days to explore seeing as I was up there for work, so it would have been rude not to go up!

I just made a a black and white shot from within Picasa 3. Should have cropped it slighty too, but I forgot!

I like this too - perhaps lacking a bit of contrast for me but screams "glass". Great entry.

Thanks, it was the most glassy subject I could find at the time!

Great shot - liking it a lot. Think I would have cropped it tight on the reflection so all you got was the glass windows and the reflection contained - but that's just me!
