I submitted it to my camera club's critique night last night and I stumped both the president and a visiting commercial/wedding photographer. I was trying juxtapose the stark architecture of the Royal Ontario Museum's Crystal Wing designed by Daniel Libiskind and the more conventional buildings across the street.
The commercial/wedding photographer was such a tool suggesting I clone the reflection out (or use a polarizer). A few other members got what I was commenting on within the photograph and came to my defense.
Remove the reflection? Largest problem in his job must be to remove reflections from people's glasses at weddings... the reflections obviously make this shot what it is.
Agreed, and both he and my camera club president are not well versed in architecture and design. I'm re-printing this on some nice neutral/cold tone glossy fibre paper and plan to put it into a proposed exhibit next year. If this sells, I win.
Interesting image of a much photographed building. Well done. I think camera clubs are negative influences and anti creative. Go you own way. Been there, done that.
