Wonderful symetry and frame composition. The subjects are balanced well.

WOW! Is that fairly new? I have been to Toledo and I sure don't remember that, but then again it's been a few years :) That guilding almost looks pasted in, the lines are so crisp and clear, I love it! The balance is just slightly off for me, maybe just a tad more cropping off either side but not both?

this said 2001 to me. the composition of this (which is nice) is making my brain feel like it's a miniture. "those trees are just models" my brain says...nice job :) I especially like the little fluffly clouds, they look painted

The building is framed beautifully by the great hues in the blue sky and what fluffy clouds. The reflections on the building is incredible. The foreground with the water and trees make the composition interesting. "10"

The water makes eye drop off the bottom of the picture. IMO this needs to be cropped to keep the "focus" on the that amazing stump of a city planning.

Nice picture, well framed, good use of the ROT, great building for the rural-like setting.

Interesting building, nice contrast with foregorund water, trees and stone along the shore. A very pretty sky.

Nice shot! I like how you show how this big hunk of steel and glass is surrounded by much smaller buildings and greenery.

I always wonder what pushes city councils to accept the building of such large structures that look soooo out of place with their surroundings. These people should read up on Post Modernism. Adapt new buildings to the existing man-mande and natural landscape. It doesn't look as goofy.

Keep up the nice work.

This is great - the loneliness of the building is great. Nice sky.
