Terrific shot - love all the squares and shine of the reflective light...

Agree with Daina about all those rectangles and the light. Really interesting rectangular patterns on the windows. Wonder why they're like that.

I like the treatment you gave this building with the dark, but still visible side and the dark strip in the foreground which works well with the dark side. Nicely done.

Alphons from Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands

Very special building. A good composition gives some unrealistic athmosphere. Well shot.

A very powerful and evocative image. I love how the light fans across the glass bricks.

Wouldn't you love to go through this old place and capture some of the inside? Love the corner view in the frame again and the power line. Exceptional composition.

@sherri: thanks sherri. yes, i'd definitely love to go inside.

What a solid looking place, like a fortress.

Feels like a giant block of Lego!

Your use of light & the lack of light in this photo is also very strong. It has the feeling of a photograph seen in a magazine.

I know it says Allied and not Acme, but it strikes me as a place that should be named Acme, and I imagine this being the place to which Wiley Coyote places all of his orders.

@Twelvebit: i had exactly the same reaction!
