Thread: Show Modern Architecture

Canon SD870 IS The Philip Johnson Glass House

Taken in 2009, redone tonight in Lightroom and Color Efex.

Excellent reflection on the right hand side of the building there BB!

I think the architect knew what he was doing here.

Amazing architectural 'abstracts, Ray. The Apple Store one is my favourite of the lot.

I'm with Mayank on my favorite amongst all those great shots, Ray. That Apple Store picture is a winner.

Love seeing everyone's and it is kind of gratifying to me when I can recognize a roof line or two, such as in yours Peter.

Same Apple store, different perspective. Taken by my husband last year.



Dome, Westfield shopping mall, San Francisco.



SF Moma against the old PacBell building:

Deirdre, I recall seeing that shot of the staircase that your husband took - loved it then and I still do!

The starry night dome is a beauty, and I like the juxtaposition of the new against the old in your third.

Deirdre,

I had seen that Apple Store photo by your husband (although I had no idea it was taken at the same place!) and I recall thinking of it after I took the one at the Apple store. And then when I originally posted my shot, I went back and found it and then clicked through to your Flickr page and saw that it was taken at the very same spot. So I acknowledged that and paid you and your husband a debt of gratitude for whatever level of subconscious inspiration that shot provided - in a continuation of the thread it first appeared in. Here's a link to the two of them back to back:

So again, thanks to him for taking it and you for showing it. I have no idea if I'd have 'seen' that shot without having seen his first, but it surely couldn't have made it any less likely!

And thanks to everyone for the kind words and the great shots... Peter, that's gotta be the Opera House, no?

The really sad part about the Apple store shot is that I wasn't feeling well that day, so I didn't go!
