What an interesting place to go to high school…. I like how you select the building that is 45 degrees off center to the grid as your center.
FABULOUS !!!! Terrific processing ! Bravo , Rian !

What an impressive building for its color and orientation. Thanks for the explanation that add to the shot. A high rise high school…..WOW.
It seems like I can see the sphere of the earth. I love this scene and have flown over it several times, each time in awe of it.
Bonsoir,

i like how that building stands out with all the others. very nice aerial viewpoint!
i love the colors in this! happy long weekend.
wow, is that cross processed? looks great!! that building is very interesting, i imagine it’s a love it or hate it type thing, i love it 🙂
Wow great vantage point! I like the green building it really stands out.
The color and angle of this building really stands out like this. A great shot. The green building provided too much interest and kept taking me away. The detail in this is really great. I can see the cars and people on the street. The pulling out of the shadows was really well executed in this as well.
Great capture and title.
Incredible shot and I love the post processing! A high school?! That is wild!
Our snow came and went in a hurry too…barely had time to stick to the ground. Ah well, it was fun while it lasted!
Terrific view…I am surprised..therez very little distortion from sideways!
