Wonderful idea, olli - thanks so much for starting this thread. It's off to a super start!

Spent a few hours in Philly today. I'd been meaning to stop into the Kimmel Center with a camera sometime and I had the LX-5 today. I'm wondering what more I might have been able to do with the EP2 and the 9-18, but the LX5 was on hand. Here are a few...

The '2000 Avenue of the Stars' building, Century City, Los Angeles.

Ray, great shots. Fantastic light and love the shadow patterns from the roof. Is this a museum? or arts venue?

Thanks Olli. Its a performing arts center. The big glass atrium houses a symphony hall, where the Philadelphia Orchestra plays (its the darker wooden structure I'm looking across at in the first three pictures), and the smaller Perelman theatre, which I'm standing on top of in the first three (roof garden up there) and looking up at on the left in the last one. There's a full french restaurant in the building, a little coffe cafe, a bunch of offices, and smaller performance and rehearsal spaces. I still think of it as a brand new facility, but its been open nearly 10 years now. So, its far from old, but its a part of the city's fabric by now.
