 I've always wanted to know if the buildings architect was aware of the fact that it looks like it's giving the finger.

The weather has not been too kind for shooting on the outside for the past days so I needed to exersize photoshop a lot to get added drama to the shot. The bottom half is cropped away since it was too tidy and made the simbolishm less clear.

I'm afraid it will not do too good but the only idea I could think of for the theme.

wouldn't get it without title. picture quality leaves a lot to be desired -- window lights detract from the image and message.

After a while I got it, but it did take a bit, the orentation of the lights was putting me off. Hope it goes well for you
