Commercial Buildings (Exteriors and Interiors)

This image is well composed as the central building with its tall tail seems to push its way out between the two buildings in the foreground. The placement and composition of the surrounding buildings is good and the central building really stands out. The top of the building lands perfectly in the frame as well, drawing the eye up. This image draws you in and then up. The conversion to black and white also simplifies it to its purest design elements.

What a wonderful shot of this building. I like that the central core sits higher in the frame and isn't vertically centered. I also like that the horizontal centering of the hole is equidistant from right to left. If it had been offset to the right or left I think it would lose some of its dynamism. The viewer doesn't really know what sort of building this is and from an architectural standpoint I don't think that matters. The image draws the viewer in and through the image in an effective way.

I love the creativity and ingenuity behind this image of chimneys. This isn't a shot that you see very often and I like the originality. It has become a purely graphic shot where the buildings don't matter so much, but their tops have taken on a personality of their own. What a great idea! I even appreciate the three lampposts peaking out between the two industrial buildings. They are a second read for me. A simple image with complex properties. Bravo.
