 Last minute effort

Went out for drive tonight with the idea of getting some trailing car headlights and ended up driving past the Glasgow Armadillo Concert Venue. There had been a concert on and the place was all lit up.

crop, curves, brought out a bit of detail by lightening a bit and submit

Love the colors. It's too bad rotating to make the building level caused the reflections to be at an angle.

The colors and capture is great though the angle is a dull. You should rank well. Good luck!

nice material altho i think the reflection here does not add much ... a ladscape oriented frame of mostly the building would have been more appealing

One of the best of the challenge.
A very striking photo. I do believe that this is the nicest image i have seen of this stunning building. Could maybe make some money by letting the owners see this shot?

Great building, wish the shot was sharper. Not convinced by the colour balance or the square crop.

Very nice, love the colours and feel too it but I think it´s framed a little bit too tightly, I am curious about the surroundings of this strange building. Anyway, one of the better shots in the challenge, gave it an 8.
