Challenge: Architecture IV (Basic Editing)
Collection: candid and city
Camera: Nikon D300
Lens: Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II
Location: Cleveland, Ohio
Date: Jan 29, 2008
Date Uploaded: Jan 29, 2008

 The title is referring to "the Mistake on the Lake" which is an old nickname for Cleveland. This is the Rock and Roll Hall of fame - the sky was grey and bland so converting to a duotone type deal was the best thing to do. I used shadow/highlight a few times to get this right. I hope it foes over well.

This is exactly what I was going to try and get up and shoot, but too busy this past week. Great angle and reflection. You did a nice job converting it because trust me, I live here and know what you have to deal with, with the weather and clouds. Nice work.

Love it! Very cool looking building and you captured almost a perfect reflection of it. That was all natural? Great compo and contrast.

shazaam that is one crazy building. I was just thinking how funny photography be. think of all the people involved in making that building happen. You go and take a picture of it and somehow it becomes yours as well. Kind of like robbery. anyways off the subject.

I've been there twice. What a great place. This is the first B&W image that I have seen. I have several images of this also but they are all in color. Very nice job on the contrast.

lovely - I am sure that I have seen this on DPC before in night shots. reverse halo in the reflection is a bit strong and distracting, which stops me from scoring it higher
