About the Image(s)
Could not find the original, but close. Mirrored the building and used MirrorLab to do the 'heavy lifting'. Converted to B&W to showcase the shapes and tones. Always amazed how the software rearranges the features (No Ai used) - in this case turning a straightforward shot of the outside of a building to look like the inside of the building. Used Ps to convert to B&W and Ps Adjustments for the fine tuning. Your comments and suggestions always welcomed and appreciated.

A good perfectly symmetrical image. When I first saw it I imagined that it looked like a basketball net at the back. I might recommend brightening the lower half of the image to create a little contrast between the two dark objects and the rest of the background? An interesting construction!   Posted: 02/03/2025 09:36:28
Such a striking image to come from a most mundane source! You put MirrorLab to good use. I like the sense of relative spaciousness at the bottom progressing to claustrophobia as one's eye moves towards the top of the image. I also like the "keyhole" of blue space between the buildings as well as the orange and blue geometric shapes to the sides of the "keyhole."   Posted: 02/04/2025 17:26:49
At first I had a hard time deciding whether I liked the color version or the B/W version best. You did a great job of simplifying the B/W version and eliminating all the small distractions in the color version. I agree with Mike that lightening the foreground would balance the image and draw more attention to the nice texture there. I'm not sure the black planters contribute much to the symmetry and they seem somewhat distracting to my eye. But I think your experimentation with mirroring created a really interesting image. I think the B/W version is more dramatic. Nicely done!   Posted: 02/11/2025 00:26:39
Hi Gunter. Wow. To me, you are the master of 'flip-flop'. I love the monochrome finish. It's a perfect tonality. Right mood. Awesome work.   Posted: 02/16/2025 08:09:37
