I noted that two comments referred to the 'darkness' of this image. Both original and the submitted versions, really, are far from 'dark'. There 'is' a shadow running up approx. 2/3 of the picture, but even within this area sufficient brightness is retained to ensure the visual data remains uncompromised.

I processed the image on an 2003 eMac with Apple factory calibration, checked it on an Apple G4 Powerbook and a slot-loading iMac, without noticing any deviations.

When I viewed the picture on an older Dell computer owned by the Vancouver Public Library the other day, I could hardly believe my eyes. The image was rendered very dark, the colours were completely off and the detail, particularly in the shadowed lower section, was largely obliterated.

I'm not quite sure yet what to make of this, but I have now checked two further comments as 'helpful', since without them, I would have never found out. Thanks ttreit and timmi.

Not paticularly 'future'. Interesting technique though I find myself wanting the three images to be dead central.

Very interesting. The different coloring of the bottom middle section seems to throw it off. If that part had the brown bars like the upper portion I think the shot would be a lot stronger, by retaining it's strong lines.

Wonderfully odd capture: it bothers me slightly that in such a geometrric composition you've taken a slightly off-centre view-point, otherwise excellent work.

don't see this as a glimpse of the future.. Surely it's a glimpse of the now?

The lighting on this one really conveys a dark moodiness.

Alternative for right angles?? ... Just kidding :-))) this is actually one of the better and "real" photos in this challenge. I like how the reflection ads a dimension to the whole image. Nice sharpness. A bit dark, but otherwise well done.
