Shot in RAW. Minimal processing. In PSP X2, noise reduction, crop, clarify, resize, white balance adjustment (knocked slightly to the left for a VERY mild red cast), JPG.

POST: Last minute ideas are never good ideas. I still don't hate this (there are some images I've entered that just make me cringe now), but I am sorry I entered it. I need to create a "What Was I Thinking" collection.

I would have accentuated the blue reflection in the windows on the bottom right quater of the shot. But its an interesting shot none the less.

Hot day, summer in the city? Having such a uniform pattern makes it hard for me to find anywhere for my eye to land. Not sure that I understand the intended enhancement of the overexposure.

Yes its over exposed, but i dont feel like it adds anything to the image. I feel like it makes it bland, and a little uninteresting.

Nicely done. I like the composition and the over exposed area works well with the subject. 9

Yepp - this is the blowout. It's a little hard to say what overexposure bring to the shot. Maybe some more contrast in the harder lines might help it as an abstract, along with making some more out of the complementary soft shape at the top. I think it's what we'd call a good effort.
