Benedum Trees Building, Fourth Avenue, downtown Pittsburgh, as seen reflected off the plate glass of a nearby building.
In PSP X2, perspective correction, crop, NI w/sharpen, channel mixer (boosted red, green; sunk blue), levels, curves, cloned out some cables above the building, burned the right side of the building slightly, USM (2/100/6), NI w/sharpen, resize, USM (.8/40/12), JPG.
POST: Wow. I'm thinking 38th place isn't a bad place to be with my first Free Study entry. And it's a new personal best, so no arguments there! Thanks for the votes and comments. This one was a lot of fun.
Here's the original, resized only, for those interested:
And here's an outtake:

| This is truley a unique shot that you had to see the final outcome of before you snap the photo. I commend you on being able to do that. What a great b/w conversion as well. This is excellent. |

| I love this shot. I like the way you have taken an ordinary reflection and turned it into a beautifully rendered piece of art. |

| A lovely and clever image, the viewpoint is good, without the distortion from looking up. Great detail in each reflection, well done :) |

| Often these distortion shots come over as cheesy but you've done an amazing job with this. I adore the black and white conversion you've done and the high contrast, tones, framing and distortion really make for an appealing image. |
