    Reflected light
    I've always thought this image was fun, but wanted to see if others "got it" like I did or if it was just a personal attachment to a photo because I took it. ;) I took it walking home from a nearby Starbucks to my old apartment in Dallas. I used an Olympus C5050 - loved that camera and am thinking of picking one up on ebay since they're so cheap now.

    well done, way to make an eyesore cool!

    The powerlines work well, the grain works.

    Very strange image, I like it.

    Could benefit with a slightly wider view, not much wider, maybe 5% But it works for me as is.

    You could make it really crazy by flipping it upside down :D

    EDIT: Great title, it's 2:30 AM and I finally "got it"

    Very neat. You turned a mudane subject into an image that is intriguing and attractive.
    I like the tones too.

    I like the contrast in the photo. The whites are bright, the blacks are dark, with tons of grays in between.

    Very neat photo...well done, imo. :)

    I think this is pretty cool. I always think reflections are fun things to play with. The contrast works here, imo...it brings out the light.
