Some kinda cool architecture shots

We spent a couple hours walking around downtown today, just for something to do, and I got these shots of the new museum addition. I'm not sure what this reflective material is that they used, but it creates a really nice effect.

This one is a self-portrait

I used another one for my "photo of the day" if you want to check it out. It's my favorite one. :)

1. Really cool!

I'm not sure why but I really like photographs with reflection in them. Maybe it's the optical illusion aspect of it. Your shots really bring out that aspect, especially the first two.

PS. Is that you in the lower right of the last shot?

2. I like the reflections too

In the second one, I like the perspective and the reflection of the scene behind the camera.

There's plenty of good photos in your daily stuff too. I've gotten behind in viewing them and really enjoyed catching up. The photo in the book store is one of my favourites, just because it is so candid.

4. Yeah, I was trying to be real undercover in the bookstore,

sneaking around corners and whatnot so people wouldn't be aware that I was focusing on them. It's harder than you think.

Looks like a very handsome building. As said upthread, the first one here is great.
