this is really a beautfiul shot. Captured an extreme urban setting well at a good angle and were able to get reflections from all the windows on that building to the left. I also like the movement of the flags throughout at the shot.

It's VERY difficult to put into words what you look for in an image. I've just spent 6 months on Usefilm trying to learn how to comment truthfully on what I like about the wonderful photos to be found here. I notice you use a Bessa and 35mm lens. That's a combination I often use (though 21/4 is more common these days). In this one, I like the way it still works well after breaking the "rule" on splayed verticals (feels quite natural to me, as if I really were looking up). I like the warm blacks (slight sepia toning?), and the depth of field that keeps nearby flag and distant buildings all sharp. I love both the almost stereoscopic sense of perspective, and the realistic rendering of the various textures, particularly the ornate lamp and the patterns in relief on the wall (both on the right). Even so, the overall effect is greater than the sum of these individual attractions. Great shot! And congrats on POD!

For an image of buildings, there seems to be so much movement.

I can see why John, all the elements of what I would think the city would be are there...from an observer of only still and moving images of course. Love your perspective and light and toning are excellent!
