Thanks for all the comments:

I wasn't sure about the "glow" myself but I couldn't think of anything else to detract from the otherwise blown out sky.

Not the first one to have compared it to snails :-)

I shall pay more attention next time to the cropping.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

I thought it was a bit different and hoped that would help in the voting.

Glad you liked it, it is a great building. My shot doesn't convey the scale of it I don't think, but if you look in my portfolio there are some close up shots which will give you an idea of the size.

The crop is a bit tight on the bottom you're right. There is a very large warehouse type building below it and the steel corrugated roof is just below and I had to crop it out.

It is interesting architecture, glad you liked it.

It was about 09:30 Sunday morning just as the market was being setup. Are you from the NE?

Edited for spelling!

Interesting architecture to be sure; not really sure if I fully like the "glow" around it but the colors are pleasing and the composition is nice.

Looks like a convention of snails. Very dramatic photo, though. 6.

What a wonderful subject and a nice view. Nit pick, but I think cropped too close on the right. In this case both should be exactly equal. One of the top shots IMO.

Nice light and color, the crop seems a bit tight on the bottom. Good work.

It's great to see three entrys from the Northeast in the form of the Sage.
Looks like yours was taken early morning.
It will be interesting to see which of the three comes out on top in the voting.
Good Luck
