Location: Vancouver, BC

Reflections in a glass-clad skyscraper in Vancouver's downtown core.

cropped, rotated 1.75% left, contrast + 15, resized, borders added, converted to jpeg, USM

Without using the Perspective filter (which I assume is illegal in dpc and if not, is clearly against the spirit), it was impossible to get BOTH the vertical and horizontal edges level. I chose to make the verticals straight by rotation.

Excellent, frustrating initially but it makes a closer look worthwhile. Not very much to fault here, from my viewpoint.

Well this is certainly glass, and a well done photo. I do indeed want to pick up a copy and read about the various uses of glass, so well demonstrated by your photo!

Suberb in every way! I can see this being chosen by them, did you try submitting it :)

Great compostion, color, framing and content. The challenge is to creat an image worthy of your magazine, you acomplished that very well.

And I thought my magazine was a popular choice at the newstands :) I could definitely see this on the cover. great reflections.

would be good on an annual report cover too - The border feels a bit heavy - 8

Can see the relationship between title and picture in this one :)

Nice picture.

Never heard of this magazine. LOL "International Glass Review"??

This is a really nice shot. I like how you captured the building in the reflection of another covered in glass.

Gorgeous shot. It could be a cover !
Very aestetic too. I like it very much.

Hadn't heard of your magazine before this but it doesn't surprise me in the least an industry-specific magazine like this exists. The photo fits the topic. I think its possible the reflection in the building shows up a little TOO well, maybe because of how highly-lit it is, in terms of attractiveness of photo, though if that were the point of the article I suppose that would make sense. I just am not sure where a compositor would fit text easily. As an industry-style magazine photo it's fine even if I wouldn't exactly hang it on my wall.

Cool... I could definitely see this on the front of a magazine of that name. I don't think that the border was necessary, I don't think most magazines have borders. This is an awesome building. Where's it located... Chicago? Nicely done... but almost too much border which ddetracts from the photo. Just my opinion though.

What a great photo! Very interesting and I can easily see it as a covershot.
