Hi Boris,

My initial reaction to this, and many of your other photo's is that you  
just slightly missed the point. In this photo, the building is very dark,  
the city is a bit washed out, which could be corrected in photoshop. The  
photo is almost, but not exactly symmetrical in several ways, which could  
be corrected by cropping, or at shooting time. I remember a photo of the  
setting sun behind a fence where the reflections in the fence form a  
perfect parabola, but the sun is just off, and of a lady looking out over  
the see, shot from above, instead of from the back...

Upon reflection I always come to the conclusion that my 'corrections'  
would, most probably, make the photo less interesting, probably even  
outright boring.

So: in this photo, I really like the balance of the compostion. I think  
the tones are fine. In general, I like the way you manage to make me think  
about a photo, and about why the photo is what it is, by introducing these  
'nags' in it.

FWIW,
