    GRAND! That's some space. It has great lines, that you captured well.

    A truly magnificent space. I love the varied lines and angles in the shot as well as the abundance of light. You did a great job capturing the essence of this building.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Re: After Hours

    I want to see it large!

    FWIW I'm not sure everything is in as sharp a focus as I would like for an image like this but that may just be a result of resizing. I'm also thinking it is tilted slightly to the right.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    I would love to see this in a gallery blown up to a really large size.

    Looks great.

    Re: After Hours

    Wow.. another incredible shot Yoyo. A slight devoid of interest at the bottom but that is the only criticism I could make. I like it a lot.

    This shot makes me consider buying a full frame DSLR and regaining my wide angle lenses' true potential!

    Very beautiful lines, ambient light and a great atmosphere. You've captured the grandness really well.

    Hi Guys,
    Thanks a lot for sharing your perspective and encouragement. I really appreciate it. MB, you are right about the sharpness as I took the picture on an elevator.

    Re: After Hours

    I like your tones and exposure. My only problem with this shot is that you haven't brought anything to the table. The building itself is fascinating to look at (in all its neo-ostentatious glory), but all we're doing is looking at the designer's art; I'm not getting any sense of your own personal expression in the capture of the building.

    Just my $.02.
