As already mentioned the wonderful light makes the image.
I think it is the reflection of light off the buildings on the left that light up the shadowed building on the right, not to mention the effect on the water.
Lovely work and well seen.

Regards

Post by: bill t. on July 27, 2012, 12:31:11 pm: Nice work Slobodan. You should be able to sell at least one 40 x 53 to each office with a window visible in this shot. Start ringing those doorbells.

However, bill t has a really good idea there: it seems absolutely like something that'll fly. You certainly could do worse than make a couple of big prints and try it out - some of those offices must still have pots of gold stashed away: look at the light coming out of the buildings! Get there before the tax-man does!
