A cropped photo from 21st St. N showing four of Birmingham's tall bank buildings clustered together. In the far right you can see a reflection of the SouthTrust tower, as well.
Taken from my car window with my trusty Canon Powershot S410.

interesting abstract composition. the curtain at the bottom of the building on the left balances the staggered shapes on the 3rd bldg top. nicely done.

Wow. I especially like how hard it is to figure the depth out.
Jeff Clow (85 months ago | reply)
I really think this is a classic....the lines...the various colors....REALLY work well together here...
EXTREMELY well captured by you and your lens...BRAVO....!

Thanks, Jeff. No faint praise there!

serk- you're right- the edge between the two middle buildings is perfect. you can't tell which building is in front. dystopos, did u setup that intentionally when you shot it?
Dystopos (85 months ago | reply)
No, I was driving down 21st Street at the time. I took two shots of which this was the better.

For those who are fascinated by height and love to be out of bounds, it would be worth exploring the opportunity to own a house in the tallest building of North India.
Standing tall at over 250 meters with 60 floors, this tallest residential building offers unprecedented levels of luxury, comforts and services. With its business centre, studio apartments, luxury apartments, penthouses, club/dance floor and open air rooftop restaurants, it is a world of experience in itself. Stylish, sophisticated and reaching for the clouds – there would not be a better place to reside!

I've worked in 3 of these buildings.
