Cityscape Impression...

Charlotte, NC skyscrapers shot from the top deck of a parking garage.  Its obvious here that I wasn't looking for a classic wide angle cityscape.  I was focused on the lines, colors and wonderful "metallic" light reflecting from the buildings.  I used a moderate zoom lens to shoot "through" the buildings and focus on the most interesting sections of this otherwise busy urban scene.  The zoom lens helped compress the buildings togehter.

In photoshop I played with the blending modes in layers to get the abtract second version.

Gear:  Nikon film camera & lens, bogen tripod, cable release, Kodak E100SW slide film scanned with Nikon film scanner.
