the hills were upside down
When I was a boy / The moon was a pearl / The sun a yellow gold / But when I was a man / The wind blew cold / The hills were upside down (Tom Waits)

Excxellent! nice day to you!
So und nur so
gefallen sie mir:
die Curtain walls!
Als Spiegelfläche des Himmels,
der Wolken, des Lichts.
Jedes Fenster ein Bild.
Und die hyperrealistische Kontrastschärfe
lässt die Fassade zu einem Display
für das vergängliche und flüchtige
Spiel des Wolkenzugs werden.
Hinreißend. LG, Uwe
always keep a sapphire in your mind, always keep a diamond in your mind, gotta get behind the mule, in the morning and plow… do we love tom waits? it seems we do, but he gets his songs from the spiritual world, or so i’ve heard, and i have to wonder… which spirits? you can i, we get our ’songs‘ from the real world, so we reflect God, this is my story, and i’m sticking to it :) beautiful picture my friend!!
ay, Fritsch, you had me at hello this time!
the moon’s a pearl and the moon’s our world and you know it just like our man T knows it too!
great frame, buddy!
Vivas!
impressive reflection and stuning b&w of course!
Are the windows reflecting clouds or are the clouds reflecting windows? When everything is upside down, there is no more certainty. We may have the illusion of a strong powerful building but we know that this building will soon be destroyed and that clouds will continue to float over its ruins for a long time. This is, Florian, an exemplary way to reveal man’s vanity and weakness: a modern building like a tombstone.
The building stole the sky and it is prisoner in its windows. Great picture again! Love it!
Have a nice day.
We have a beautiful view angle is the reflection is a more beautiful realization!
Even when the most imposing of structures fills the frame, there is always but a reflection of light breaking through

mit dem älterwerden müssen wir klar kommen. so oder so. schade.
Wow… Magnifique !
This picture is surely shaping up to become one of my favourite of your recent works Florian, given its well-balanced, well-paced, VERY well-execution!
Dem Himmel sei Dank, diese Fassade verändert sich von Sekunde zu Sekunde und so wird aus dem starren Klotz ein lebendiges „Wesen“ trotzt harten und klaren Linien.
