Hi

Unfortunately for me, the blownout sections on the right of the photo distract and detract too much from the scene. It looks like a very difficult exposure situation.

Yea, I have a shot from the exact same spot that is slightly less bright but then I don't have the light blur which is what I really like about the shot.

Well I guess I'll put this one in it's place for now, I can try to get so more shots of that building tommorrow night I'll see if I can work something out a little better.

O.K. I think I like the second shot better. Interesting shots and good work!

Thanks. I kind of like the top though I wish there was some fog around the bottom. I always hear people describe that building as looking like a launching pad for the apollo rockets. This is in FL and many people have seen the large abandoned launching pads and that building has a similar look and feel to it with the strong arms and bare concrete. At night they say it looks like a rocket ia taking off from it because of the bright strong light eminating from it compared to the very subdued dull colors of the surrounding buildings.

I knew it was in Florida! Looks just like the pathway lights at USF and various other places in Tampa...where in Florida was this shot taken? I like the blown-out whites in the picture, actually...it gives it an ominous feel...

At the FAU campus in Boca Raton, which is way south.
