 Grady Gammage Memorial Auditorium, is one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s last designs. Wright designed the building to be as acoustically perfect as possible. Constructed in 1964, the building is named for Dr. Grady Gammage, ASU president who led Arizona State College’s campaign in the state legislature for a name change to Arizona State University in 1958.

I shot this at 14mm at around 6:45am. There is a funny light streak to the right of the building about roof level... I think it is from the headlights of a passing car that somehow dimly reflected through the viewfinder - but I just ain't sure. Since it is basic editing, I left it. Adjusted levels, contrast, S&H, H&S, resized, USM.

The horizon is bothering me... the picture is perfect: great colors, sharpness, subjects, etc, but that horizon.
