This is the M&T Bank building in downtown Buffalo, NY. It's also where I work as an IT Auditor. (One of these days I'm going to get a good wide-angle lens for my camera, so I can capture the entire scope of this magnificent building.)
Post-processing included the obvious sepia duotoning, auto levels, adjustment of contrast and brightness. I blackened an otherwise very dull gray sky. I also cloned out a distracting cable in the lower left.
Thanks for looking, voting, and/or commenting.

Wow, where do I start! Beautiful balance in composition and framing. The shapes, lines, and textures you managed to capture are fantastic. Great cropping and POV used, with absolutely no lens distortion (that I can see). The muted colors and dark sky provide a great contrast. And the title is fantastic. In a nutshell..... I give a 9
Fun double meaning. I like the solid balance of the composition. The choice of a dark dark sky is good. Nice detail in the architecture, forms and shadows. 7
