 My first sumbission, a last time shoot.

I have this idea in mind, but every time i went to take it.. the sun goes under many clouds!!! When the the sun appears.. somebody opens that window!... (lets see the comments about this)

I take around 100 pictures of this new building with the reflection of an old one.

Thanks to all your comments, since its my first challenge (and the shot wasn't what i was looking for - the open windows, the clouds) i am very proud to be in the top 30.

nice shot, but you should have waited for less cloud in the sky on the top right portion of the pic. the highlights is a bit distracting 8

I suggest you crop out the top and lose the window that seems to be poking out.

This shot would be great for any contest. Very nicely done. The contrast between old and new is so strong here. I really like this.

I like this pic, even though the open window detracts from it a bit (of course, there isn' t much you can do about it).

Wonderful capture! I like the angle in which this was taken. The choice to shoot the reflection makes this image more appealing also.
