...but not as in 'Lord of the Rings' :D

The same glass building as in the previous post, but another side of the street, reflecting two buildings standing at the corner, also from the 19th century.
It didn't turn out as good as I was hoping, but at least I have the opportunity to wish you a great weekend.

PP talk: lots of cropping, Shadows/Highlights adjustments, autoleveling, and neat-imaging.

well I preffer this second.... between abstract, scary and dreaming mood.... very well done
Paolo

cool reflection Marija! I agree with Paolo, abstract and scary. Excellent :))
Fred

I do prefer the second one, too. I think with building reflections, less is best in general. I like to focus on a small part and create an abstract image. The only thing that still bothers me here in the composition is the hole on the left side. But, the distorted image of the two towers are worth the price of admission! Good job!

I like this one,Marija! Beautiful composition! Lovely designs! Well done! Michel

I do prefer this reflection to the other one you posted recently. The other was less distorted but there were too much at the top. This one is intriguing because you cannot see the building clearly so you have to use your imagination a bit to recreate them. The curved lines going across the modern building add some depth to the picture. For me, the most beautiful part of this picture is the two buildings on the right. Well done!

Very well seen and accomplished.
Steve

This one is maybe better than the previous Marija...because it gives such a surreal effect...the colours are great..my compliments and keep going ;-) you know what I mean...
A great weekend Marija too :-D

Jos

It turn out great Marija!!!! Reflexions are perfect and teh fact that the forms are kind of "melting" makes it ratehr abstract. colours are great and image is very well presented!

Well done!!!!

Take care, Stef :))

Mmmm...tvoje refleksije su super! Mislim...refleksije na fotkama...da me krivo ne shvatis kao sto vec jamacno jesi! ;)))) Malo sam protrcao kroz tvoj portfolio i bas mi se svidjelo... :))

I wish I could put my finger on what it is you do that makes most of your shots feel so "grounded" and firm! (I've mentioned that to you before, several months ago.) This one has the same effect - it's like you know just how to "line up" your body to create a firm foundation. That says something about you, I think!

I picture you going to "war" for Nadia, if the need arises - being strong and solid!

Good girl!
Gayle :)

in the mirror, pleasant and formidable vision
Congratulations for the continuation of beautiful pictures
