Default A little abstract

It was a stormy day in Boston. This isn't a Photoshop effect but a combination of a wet window, rain and layered glass. I'm curious to know how others like the effect. I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Very nice but, it is my feeling is that if there were just a bit more color in this it would really stand out.

I like it, the mute colors and reflections work for me, I love playing with shots like this in CS4; However Digital Abstract art isn't everyones cup of tea.
Thanks for Sharing this
Michael.

Noted, but it was meant to be dreary.

I like it.

This would make a good texture overlay for a portrait or some other image.
