 Brought my camera with me today, and grabbed a few quick shots of the buildings in SF for the challenge including, of course, the Transamerica Pyramid. No crop on this one, but a big bump in saturation and hue to pop the blue sky in the background. Has a graphic feel that might do well at DPC ... or not!

looks familiar from a prevoius challenge of the same name, but you nailed the framing here. classic formalism.

I really like this, simple and effective. The only criticism I have is that it would be better with the bottom of the structure in each corner to be the same.

Meets the challenge very well, I don't know if I am too keen on the super central composition, I'm not sure why. Very nice patterns tho! 8

well done with a classic approach. only minor flaw is the right corner where the building doesnt exactly end up in, which distracts from the symmetry. 9
