a day on the town- the emerald city

here are acouple pics that i took in Seattle a few months ago....the space needle and music emporium building

Loving the b&w treatment on the needle photo. Simple and complex at the same time... (can that be? >.<)
The trees give it organity to it yet I'm left to wonder how it would look without them. Great either way.

You did a nice job with both of these. I think I understand what you mean by simple and complex at the same time. Complex lines and textures in simple shape? Beatiful work ntinlizi.

thank you both! i was starting to get a little self conscious about my photos, no one was commenting. i thought that the emporium building would be a hit. but it seems that the space needle gets all the glory as usual : D

Should've placed the emporium photo first! ...or maybe it wouldn't have made any difference.

And don't worry about the lack of comments. As you must've noticed by now this section gets tons of posts so your thread could be in second page with 4 views in less than an hour depending on when you post it.

i prefer the emporium shot. it looks like an artistic painting and has beautiful colours. i like the shapes you captured

thanks audrey. i feel the same about the emporium. the colors are so pretty and the layers of the building really pop! on the grey area of the building almost looks like there was fog (but there wasnt) im very pleased with it. thanks again for your comments
