The new Vancouver Convention Center

This is a discussion on The new Vancouver Convention Center within the Critiques forums, part of the Photography & Fine art photography category; I think that I may go back and try and get another angle. Thanks for the thoughts....

    I don't know if it's the actual angle or design of the building but I find it a bit disconcerting that it seems like it's falling forward. I do love the background interest you've included with the city lights and mountain in the background.

    I think this is well done overall and I dig the colour. If I had to nitpick (as i like to do when asked) I'd say be aware of brighter elements in the shot as they tend to steal your eye. Bottom left has a bright corner that could be burned in.

    I like the repeating escalators, and in general, viewers like patterns and repetition, just wanted to mention that.

    Iguanasan - The top of the building is slanted outwards.
    Marko - Thanks for the good criticisms. I think that is a light post in the way.

    No prob mcopan, I was not referring to the lightpost though. I was referring to the window at the bottom left (just near the actual edge on the '2nd' floor)

    Very good eye Mr Marko. I have some volunteer work to do tonite and hopefully will get to rome around the convention center to see how I can avoid this and possible improve this shot.

    Here is the second try on this concept. I tried the horizontal aspect and I moved to include more of the actual convention center. How can I improve on this one. Do you prefer vertical or horizontal? Please and thank you.
