Water Wall & Williams Tower, by John Burgee & Philip Johnson

Water Wall, by John Burgee & Philip Johnson: The building in the back is The Williams Tower a skyscraper located in the Uptown District of Houston. It was designed by architects Philip Johnson and John Burgee, in association with Houston-based Morris-Aubry Architects, and erected in 1983. The tower is among Houston's most visible buildings and can be seen from as far away as Missouri City, a nearby suburb. The building is the 4th tallest in Texas and the 22nd tallest in the United States. In 2002 a 20 year old man jumped to his death from the 30th floor!

Oooo... I love the composition. In all the shots I've seen of this I don't recall anyone ever framing it this way!

I wish every day for a wide angle lens. :-)

Like laanba said, I like the perspective here, pretty unique. I would like to see a non-HDR one though.

From a distance it looks like bacteria in a dish.
