I was looking for interesting shots for my PAW theme in Denver. I normally have been using my M9, but as I was walking I remembered I wanted to take a photo of this parking garage, I think it is a very interesting building. So I decided to set up and use the 1D and 17T/S to get this fantastic perspective corrected image. The light could have been better, but overall I am happy with it. The group if walkers seems to add another dimension to the image. I know it may be hard on the eyes though which is a down side to an image like this.

This is one of my 9s - I like it a lot. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:
1. Your capture of the architecture is great perfectly centred with an almost hypnotic effect.
2. The walking people make all the difference adding human interest and a sense of scale - I get the sense that you waited them too.
3. The overall composition / portrait orientation is pretty spectacular - this is so well seen, I wonder many people just walk on by without taking in this wider scene.
Overall, I really like the mix here, plenty to look at and great balance.
on top (or maybe at the bottom) of everything, you got the people in black against the white background. I'm pretty sure this should do reasonably well.
