    That is a great view but you shot in difficult light and put the sculpture in the smack dab middle of the frame. Likely you can do better with morning or evening light and a more imaginative composition.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Yes, I agree the lighting was difficult....I will be going down there at sunset sometime soon...we will see how those come out...I wanted to add something to the frame (hence the sculpture), because I felt that in order to get the whole skyline, there would be too much water and grass in the foreground .... I need a wide angle lens. In retrospect I regret it because it just dominates the photo...I do like that the red building is marked with the bisecting lines on the sculpture....
