 I will never learn. I know you LOVE to HATE abstracts but I really like this one. It isn't even flipped. The orientation is how it came out of the camera. Poor camera doesn't really know what orientation to use when I'm shooting....but I think it chose well this time. This is an abstract of the Blue Cross Building.

Usual stuff and only one crop!

I'm having trouble understanding this shot. Now that's what I call perspective! Oh, and great sharpness and color and all that...

... we are the Borg, lower your shields and surrender your ships!

The horizontal composition is, I think, the power of this shot.

This works well as a complete abstract if the obvious windows at the top are cropped away, but the choice of leaving them in gives an emphasis to the perspective. High score either way.

You have chosen a perspective so awesome that I don't even know which way is up! Great patterns and lines adds to the composition as well as the simple single color.
