    City Hall, San Jose, CA

    San Jose finished their new city hall a while back and these are two shots from inside. I realize that they won't be to everyone's liking, but I really like all the lines and angles and the nice blue color. What do you think?

    Thanks,

    PC

    The first one looks pretty cool. Its really busy because of all the reflections & lines that the window produces.

    Nice to see another SJ local on the boards

    What on earth am I looking at - these are extremely busy photo's. For me it doesn't really give the sense of the building without seeing the building if that makes sense. You need to see it to make sense of what your looking at.

    I like the reflections and the colours.

    PC, this looks like a pretty good subject for extensive investigation. There are some wonderful possibilities here.
