The buildings are too tall here where I live and I dont have a telephoto lens. I wish to take compositions such as this one day. Great vantage point...your eye for photography is great !

Great sky and color. I like the composition a lot! I wish it was a little brighter, but I am glad you entered this. It's a really nice shot! You kicked me in the eye! Hahaha :)

Excellent color contrast between the deep-blue glass and the sepia sky - 8

Love the richness of the blue in these windows, and the colorless sky gives an ominous starkness to the building itself. Very cool picture.

Really nice picture with an unusual viewpint. To me, the sky looks a very unnatural color - can't tell if it was that color or you somehow changed it to this color. All the lines on the building have a lot of jaggies, some of that is unavoidable but it looks like you might have some jpeg compression artifacts.

Very nice persspective and composition but the pixelation in the building is distracting. Perhaps less sharpening or sharpening combined with a little gaussian blur and/or smudging would help reduce it. That could be a lot of work.

I like the way the blue has been taken out of the sky..it adds impact to the image for me.

Nice angle and composition on this shot. I'm not crazy about the post-editing on the sky color though. The sky's true tone is reflected in the building and although the new sky tone provides nice contrast, it gives the photo a sort of "artificial" feel.

I like your angle and composition, but the brown sky kills it for me. I don't know it you did it intentionally or not, but it makes it look like the building is on fire and smoke is billowing from the roof.
