 A long exposure at the Chevron Building in Houston, Texas, USA...When you are photographing here they send out a guard and try to tell you that you can't photograph the building even tho you are standing on public poperty aka the sidewalk.

This is from the same night that I shot the following image for the Urban Landscape V challenge. That image placed 5th, but I don't expect this one to do as well.

I really wanted to get out and shoot something new for this challenge but never found the time.

Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that contributes to the challenge brief well

I love the fisheye exaggerated perspective Ronnie! It is very creative use of a very creative lens, the foreground and towers balance each other out nicely. I like the inky blackness and vivid colours but most of all the motion blur adds the final touch, all very nicely done
