I like it.
The framing with stuff in both of the lower corners works well and I find my eyes taking a little stroll through it all without trailing off somewhere outside the frame.
High contrast and deep DOF work very well for this too. I wouldn't change a thing!

Great shot!
When I want to know the highest effect of the modern forms in the real life, I look at an urban shot of Slobodan ...

[Eric Myrvaagnes]

Yes indeed. Slobodan is a master at making cities look good.
Very, very nice.

Nice, Slobodan. Stieglitz did something similar but I'm not sure his was as good.

[mgrayson]

A compelling image. I keep looking at it. Bravo!

Looking at just the light areas gives a most pleasing balance to the whole. Great composition decision to keep the satellite barely visible. Very nicely done.

And you need to go to Santa Fe for an architecture workshop? I wanted a little more detail in the upper right shadow area, but when I opened it on Flickr, there they were! Thought I had ya for a minute

PS Very, very nice.

Yep. I especially like how the light reinforces the crushing contrast of scales.

Yes indeed. Slobodan is a master at making cities look good.
Very, very nice.

I second that!

And you need to go to Santa Fe for an architecture workshop? ...

Yes. As much as I might be reasonably ok when it comes to exterior architectural photography, done with available light, I wanted to learn more about interior photography, using lights. That's what the workshop was about. You observe a master that takes 2-3 hours per shot to stage every little detail, from camera movements to furniture moving around to positioning lights. Quite an experience.
