So recognizable! Even from this angle. Good shot. I don't think the birds help in this case.   Posted: 03/04/2025 14:54:23

I find this to be a very interesting image. I like the birds and feel they add to the interest. The repetition of the curved lines, along with the converging sides of the buildings appeal to me.

I do feel that the image is too dark. Perhaps the exposure could be increased a bit? I realize that this image may have been recorded on a heavily overcast day.   Posted: 03/07/2025 12:29:53

Interesting/different image of an iconic structure. Kudos to you (I assume) for laying on the ground to capture this shot. The B&W works well. I find the image dark - and am curious why you chose to present it this way. Increasing the exposure creates a more pleasing image to my eye. Regarding the birds - they create some chaos in an otherwise very geometric/repetitive image. They're so small - not sure if they help or hurt the scene. Interested in what others think?   Posted: 03/07/2025 15:37:22

Will, I love the perspective and I think the birds add a nice note of chaos in an otherwise symmetrical and geometric image. B&W works well, but I agree that making it brighter might add to the effect.   Posted: 03/07/2025 17:59:20

I agree with Stephen and Steven, I think the birds are distractive to this symmetric modern architecture. I like the angle of the shot.

I would like to delete most of the birds, left only the center of one bird as the focus point. using ACR, radial gradient to light up the center of the focus area, using curves to adjust the building's luminosity.   Posted: 03/08/2025 16:14:59

It seems to me that the lines of the buildings lead my eyes to the birds. I do like the lightened versions, but Chun's version is very interesting. I did have to look to see that they were birds.   Posted: 03/08/2025 17:02:23
