My first impression of this shot was that it was cluttered and busy. Then I read all the very positive comments on the shot and thought that maybe I missed something, and went back to look some more.
The shot still seems very cluttered to me. Of course, it's a mess, it's suposed to be, but in my opinion, it doesn't make for a very attractive photo. Not one I would think to see hanging on a wall or in a gallery.
That being said, and that is only my personal opinion, and technically, I think the shot is wonderful.
Angle and framing/cropping are great. I like how you get to see through the building. I like how it's not just a dead straight on shot of the windows, how it's slightly angled.
Focus is supurb. I mean, very crisp, awesome detail.
Lighting is good on the subject. There is a small sectoin of sky in the background that is a tad bright/white, but other than that, I think lighting on the subject helps to bring out the focus and detail that is so great.
My only real complaint about this is that it's just too busy for my personal taste. Otherwise, very very nice. ~Heather~
