The International Finance Centre in Central District - It is Hong Kong's version of the former "World Trade Center" in New York.
It was already under construction when terrorists wantonly destroyed the "twin towers." Needless to say, tennants were slow to come when this modern-day Babel was finally completed in 2003.
This photo was taken on May 20, 2007 in Soho, Hong Kong, Hong Kong Island, HK, using a Canon EOS 5D.

Thanks Ale! I couldn't resist this shot when I noticed it!
Do you wanna borrow it AnnA? I think you'd work some magic with it!
Yeah, I just noticed that too Chris. But it's not HDR. It was foggy and drizzling that evening. I thought the tower looked so weird in the humidity. I've photographed this building a few times before, but this is the first one I really liked. Thanks my friend!
Hey Cowgal! Thanks ."..off the hook ":-) That's good.
I'm glad you liked this one. Yes, my nightlife is your morning. I'm 14 hours ahead of you (I think). So I'll sip my beer as you finish your coffee! LOL
Have a Terrific Weekend, My Alberta Angel!
