NYC #1

While walking through the buildings, I looked up through the entrance

cover of a hotel (I think) and had to snap this shot.

First of all, lovely capture. You have a great eye for architecture and the abstract. I like this a lot.

However, I would like it more if the "horizon" (so to speak) weren't diagonal. This image is all about the shapes, and this is too close to being symmetric for it to not be actually symmetric. It looks as though you're taking this photo through a circular hole, but the rest is either cropped out, or you couldn't capture all of it in the original (which would have made it better, in my opinion). Also, you're offset from the middle of the building.

I want to again emphasize that I really like this image, but for it to be so geometrical, I want either better symmetry, or for there to be something else in the composition to make up for the lack of symmetry.

regards, Caleb

for taking the time to analyze the picture in such detail. You are right. I would have loved to have it absolutely symmetrical and the full hole in the picture. I just could not get it done with the 17 or rather 26 mm with the crop factor lens. I probably could have tweaked photoshop a bit more to get the building straight(er) - I'll work on it :-) Thanks!
