Serendipity is a difficult concept to visualize. For me it means being at the right place, at the right time, and being lucky enough to capture something unique. Some of these entries are set up shots trying to illustrate that concept, and some record a serendipitous moment experienced by the photographer themselves. This image, although nicely composed, doesn't seem to illustrate serendipity to me.

Nice try but the sky on the left is very distracting. A straight on shot could have been better. Maybe there was something in the way. Reflection too dark.

not sure this is serendipity, possibly better for another topic, rated this a 5

could use better cropping i think. and the right side of the pic is giving my eyes fits - seems to be leaning out at the top, but i know it is square...

Great concept. It would be more interesting if the buildings weren't so dark.
