Anish Kapour Sky Mirror

This is one of a bunch of shots I took of the termporary Sky Mirror exhibit at Rockefeller Center this fall...

IMO, i think this is a little busy. i like more simple architecture shots. your colors look spot though. its a great shot, just a little too busy for me

I really like it. The only thing that I can see is that it seems to lean slightly to the right. Other than that it's pretty nice.

I would like to see more of the ground plane in the picture, it would give you a little more bearing if you don't know what your looking at.

it is pretty busy, and without the title, I wouldn't have realized what the mirror was. A closer shot on the mirror itself might have been more striking.

The lighting and contrast looks pretty good, though.

Hi sir,
I have a comment, I had a hard time determining what the subject was since I don't know what im supposed to look at, the most prominent thing in the picture is the building and not the mirror.
A mirror has many potentials for images that people don't usually see, take advantage of that, keep experimenting and happy shooting

There are a lot of things I like about this picture: the subject matter, the sky color and how it is reflected in the windows of the tall building, the lines in the building. But I since the mirror is the main subject, it feels a little lost, almost an afterthought. Would have loved to have seen this though!

Thanks for the comments folks. In response to those who feel that the scene was a little cluttered and there is not enough emphasis on the mirror, I agree. Here is another example that perhaps better shows off the main subject.

yeah, this one definitely captures the subject better. cool shot.

Dude! thats a better shot! but you can do better! make a tighter shot of the mirror, I personally don't know but Im curious of how it would look like if you'd fill the image with the mirror taking up 70 or 80 percent of the composition
or take shots of it's frames, or shots of people looking at the mirror, hehe lots of ways to take it!
Keep shooting and dont hurry, you might find other interesting things that other people don't usually see
