Illusion of city

[Alexandra]

I think i already posted a pic of this building from a different pov...
but every time i walk by it, i'm always amazed by the reflections... almost looks like a mirage
here i think it's a tad blurry because i gave it a go through Neat Image and it couldn't find a uniform area large enough... so it's overall softened. but i think it enhances the mirage effect

Great reflection shot alex, i like how clear the image is with the strong sunlight. Nice one :thumbup:

Good eye.

This has great color.

I think reflection shots of architecture almost always are interesting because this point of view automatically throws off our "normal" ways of seeing and shows us a new world, or a "mirage" as you put it.

Thanks a lot guys!
I really thought it was too blurry, but it's nice to see you don't mind.. must be me then

I think the blurriness really adds to the effect that makes a person whether it is real or completely photoshopped. As someone else said. good eye

 

[Francois]

Beautiful sunlight, good eye, and pov... all in one. As peanuts said the bluriness adds to the effect...
bravo, un magnifique reflet au travers de tes yeux.

...ha, my spoken french is pure quebecois... french people would barely understand the accent, i guess.
