Looking Up on a Dreary Cloudy Day by taffy

Looking Up on a Dreary Cloudy Day

The John Hancock building enveloped at the top in fog. The top of the Hancock is an observation floor - great fun on a clear day, not so much on a day like today.
Main Album - a bit of street photography: http://365project.org/taffy/365/2017-01-22

For the curious (no need to comment), I posted a photo here - https://365project.org/taffy/the-also-ran-ph/2016-05-02 - that shows what it looks like from the top. I had taken it and processed it in May 2016, and just realized I'd never posted it.
Great shot .. like the colour down the bottom and the best buy sign... One of those shots where you nearly tip over getting it..

Fabulous perspective. I feel like I'm tipping over!
January 23rd, 2017  
Cool lines and processing.
January 23rd, 2017  
Awesome perspective, leading lines
January 23rd, 2017  
Love the perspective. You will have to go back on a clear day and take a photo looking down from the top of the building.

@onewing I've done this earlier - an attempt at a pano last spring: https://365project.org/taffy/365/2016-03-22

@onewing And I went back to see what I'd posted when we had the big meetup last May and found one I'd never posted, but had already processed and noted that it was in my album. Now it's there: https://365project.org/taffy/the-also-ran-ph/2016-05-02

Stunning POV Fav
January 23rd, 2017  
Great lines and PoV
January 23rd, 2017  
I really like the symmetry and diagonal lines coming out of corners
January 23rd, 2017  
Full of drama - and so many angles.
January 23rd, 2017  
Almost film noirish.
January 23rd, 2017  
Lots of lines, reflections and angles.
January 23rd, 2017  
very gothic. I love how the Hancock is flanked on both sides creating the rhythm with the crosses on the building.
January 24th, 2017  
It does look very imposing. Nice pov.
January 24th, 2017  
@jgpittenger The diagonals are what attracted me here as well...this is a hard building to find a way to photograph, so it was fun ending up with something I actually liked.
January 24th, 2017  
Great POV! So imposing!
January 24th, 2017  
If there's such a thing as a favorite building, the Hancock has to be mine. Of course it was a little dicey when the windows were blowing out, but that's part of the charm. I think it was the Boston version that had that problem.
January 24th, 2017  
very cool pov and love the processing.

Wonderful pov and great editing to bring out the colors and detail in the lower windows
January 25th, 2017  
You're so great at architectural shots (actually I take that back, you're great at all shots) - this is beautifully done.
January 25th, 2017  
Very dystopian scene...
January 25th, 2017  
fav! Awesome POV!
January 27th, 2017  
It may have taken you a little while to line up this shot, but wow, it was worth every minute. This is a stunning shot with all those interesting strong lines. Makes me feel like an ant.
