Photographer’s Note

Keilaniemi, probably the most well-known business district in metropolitan Helsinki, if not the biggest. It is an intriguing combination of office blocks and nature. It looks wonderful by night, which I'm hoping to show with this shot.

a nice photo but have a look at the worshop of mine where the rocks are cropped to show more of the building and the refelction

I would also suggest a crop. Something like priyasri made. The rocks themself are a good idea, but there is not enough light for them here. They are also a bit far from the refelction in the water. There is an "empty band" in the image.

I'm also a bit surprised by the tilted buildings. Fortums headquarters (on the right) seems to tilt to the right and Kone headquerters (on the left) seems to tilt to the left.

YES! I simply think this photo is fantastic! Perhaps it fits my view of the world, or perhaps for some third party reason it just fits the idea of beauty :D
I adore the buildings tilting away from one another, the smooth reflection in the water and that rock lurking in the darkness to remind us that nature is all around, just waiting to take ahold of us ;D the gradient in the shot is wonderful although I have to admit I would have probably lighten it up a bit/done a longer exposure/taken the shot about ten minutes earlier.
It all works very well for my eye! :D
TFS! Julia
