Please note: monkeys can only post one work a year in GFX. Post them one at a time. Its only early March and you have already posted two. Now your former work is off the main page and people wont see it...

Why do you dream about HDR with such a beautiful exposure (and sharpness, and background)?

I wouldn’t mind seeing more space around it, though I guess there are other buildings around that are were dying to jump into the frame.

Great job!

First?? First???
Perfect exposure, details, and focus. Would love a black sky but with all that light pollution I understand why it's not.
Two this year??? I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!

Damn, not first but third. I type too slowly!! :(

man, aaa... sorry... AlmostMan, wtf is happening ?
two photos in the same year ????????
great exposure, indeed.
I think it's a bit tight on the right side and I wish the sky was less red.
nice job, anyway.

Wow A-H,

I will tell my grandchildren one day that today you posted a second image for this year!

I really like this shot, its clean with excellent exposure

Somehow I feel there needs to be a bit more space on the left side (lol as opposite what FAV thinks)

But I think this is beautiful, well done!

Very cool and sharp..... Did you take a walk along the Thames?

The title really suits the photo...Great Work

Sharp and not bad photo. The comp could be better, the tilt could be better. Slight over exposing in some of the lights.
I think a crop of a part of the building would have been much better or a different angle

Wow, I absolutely love this shot.
Brightness in a dark atmosphere, sharp and clean. Love the colour and the position of the photo, straight on and no messing with angles. This building at this time of the day (night) is great because you can see every 'cell', and the lights make this really pretty in a city-kind-of-way .

Nice to see you on my old stalking grounds Brian ;) Glad to see you taking in some of the architechture!

Nice photo, screams 'London' it's a typical new building in London: oddly shaped. Good light capture, crisp details and nice colours.

One thing I would do personally is crop the left part out so it looks like the building goes on and on.

Nice work Brian.

Great details and sharpness. Hehe great title.
Love the lower section of the shot where the reddish the blueish meets.
Cool capture.

Nice, reminds me a lot of the work of Andreas Gursky.
The exposure looks spot on to these eyes, while I think the composition could be tweaked a bit (would be tempted to crop the sky from both sides, myself). Love those colors.

The vibrant lights really catch the eye, great shot ;)
Maybe a little more less of a tight crop on the left?...

Very well done. Out of your expansive gallery, I think this may be your best yet.

Excellent exposure, and I love all the visible details in the windows.

I don't get why some of the photographers on this site have to be so perfectionist. :p Personally, I think this photo looks great as it is! I really love the greenish building versus the red sky. The details are magnificent. :)

A beautiful building Brian. Nice detail. I'd love to see a full version of this. My feeling though is that it is cropped to tightly left, right, and above. My eyes want to see some of the surrounding areas. Nice exposure!

nice work brian
subject is interesting and well done
lacking something to be perfect thought...
and i don't think HDR would be better here, its nice as it is imo
good work :) no crits

Cheers everyone. ;) LOL

The cropping is becase as Juro pointed out of buildings..
so its tight on the left, and as a result its tight on the top.
Regarding anthing else, this image may not work at this size but larger and you find yourself looking throught each room !

For those who are always looking for an opportunity to make an HDR for avoiding hardwork, this might be an lesson how you could get a perfect exposure if you spend time on a shot. (Maybe A-H , you & Carlos should add hours spend on a shot, like digital painters do :) ) ... !!
Love the color of the sky here... !! Yeah it look great when you actually zoom it & make it larger than the screen itself. I can imagine this on print, where u feel traped in a cell too...
I tried to add more space on all three sides apart from bottom & it doesn't take anything away. Infact adds to the feeling of being trapped.. !
Its sharp ! Composed very thoughtfully to capture the scale of the building (when compared to the people working in it), the blue light & the curved road on the left bottom add to it, plus that light on the 3rd floor at the left ensures contunity to the building ...
IMHO the motion blur of the lights on the right bottom, asks for attention, wonder it that could be fixed.
Top Marks !!
PS : please walk us through how u got the exposure so perfect, & what glasses were involoved :) !!

Great exposure and details. Photo remind me Andreas Gursky works. I'd prefer centered, exact composition here.

nice, nice, nice !!!
I dont think HDR is what you need here.... HDR is great for different illumination in diff. areas - there are no details you didnt catch with that exposure... You got perfect exposure, so theres no need for that!
cheers

Needs a better composition because it lacks something to give it a bit of "wow"

I don't really think HDR would've done too much for this shot really -- the exposure is quite excellent as it is. Composition is ok, not brilliant, but not awful either. Nice work overall (thumbup)
