 Westfield San Francisco Centre

Didn't have a tripod, so this was taken hand-held for 1/2 second with an IS lens (Canon EF 28-135mm F/3.5-5.6 IS USM) at 30mm. I was braced on a garbage can across Market Street in front of the entrance of the Flood Building.

I really liked this, Les. Just so many interesting shapes and tones. The single dark window adds a bit of mystery, making me wonder why that one's different.
