I like them. Cool patterns! Almost like abstract art.

Thanks ! For the last one, WB was intentionally set to "tungstene" to emphasize the soft blue shadow light, to be honest...

Very interesting photos - the first one played tricks on my eyes as I scrolled down. Very cool

These are great! The first one is really outstanding because of the fun trick it plays on the eyes. I think that you're off to a really good start. It looks like you have a natural eye for composition. Take what I say with a grain of salt, I've only been doing this for about a year myself.

Yeah, I liked that.

I especially liked the people going up the stairs.

Excellent pictures, I particularly like the couple on the stairs - great composition.
