Wow that's really sharp. How about cropping off the blue sky to give the appearance that the building goes on forever.

Very cool perspective! I agree with murtasma that cropping the sky may make the building appear as if it goes on forever, but either way would be fine. I would even portrait crop it to enhance this effect. You may want to rotate the photo slightly (clockwise) since the horizontal lines of the windows aren't parallel to the edges of the photo. Thanks for sharing!

Default how about this

is this any better..also do you think it should've been a little symmetric, I should've been somewhere near the centre-front of the building?

not so sure a crop of the top or cropping it into a more portrait layout would look best. I would try different ways...very nice blues in that. All the lines are real defined too.

I like the second one it gives a greater feeling of height I almost get vertigo looking at it. I think standing in middle of the building would have worked better for the 2nd shot.

Now that I see the new version, I agree with xxpinballxx. I would try leaving the sky in, but experimenting with different crops nonetheless. The sky seems to aid in the perspective of the building going on forever and when it's removed, that perspective feels really 'tight.'

How would you feel if I took a stab at the cropping? I'm a beginner when it comes to building photography, but I think if I played around with it, it could help me (and perhaps you/others) learn.

I think it's cool when people don't 'see' the same thing in a photo. That's why I love DPS. vineetabhat, seems like there are many ways to present your photo, so don't hold back!
