    Reflections at La Défense, Paris

    I find the glass fronted buildings interesting in themselves, but the reflections even more so...

    Nice image, David. The cloud cover at the top does not match the sky we are seeing reflected in the building on the left. What has happened here?

    Re cloud cover etc - no it really was like that, a mix of huge dark clouds and some white clouds moving fast across an otherwise clear sky, you can see more of the clear blue just below the clouds at the top. Curious weather.

    We are having that weather every day in Europe at the moment Manfred. One minute clear skies and sunshine, the next, thunderstorms, followed by more sunshine.....and repeat.

    David, I wonder if a bit of perspective correction may help the image here to correct the verticals ?

    @ Peter - yes you're right, I could have done more to correct perspective - will revisit the shot
