@jamesy: Thanks Deb, up higher on the building the sun is actually hitting it quite hard and the reflections of light from the glass and windows of the building are reflecting the square patterns onto the road. Thanks for stopping by, hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Who was George Kylie? a big man Australia. I well like to degrade it of the street, and the life of this street. Ambience of not productive job, however a lot activity of dialogue.Siam

Wowzer Kyles, superb capture! I'm glad Jamesy asked that question...those squares on the ground are really quite surreal! Perfect B&W and wicked composition:-) Its a winner in my book my friend:-))

I really like the lines and reflections here, Kylie. I must look at the buildings more carefully next time I walk down George St, as you've inspired me now!

@Elaine-: Thanks Elaine, this image was converted to b&w then a little contrast and highlights added to deepen the shadows, that's it! Caturday is on October 11th, so I will paste details in a few days again on what to do, but basically on the day post your cat picky, link your page to mine, and then leave a comment on my page and link my page to your ;o). Thanks for your lovely comments!

This is a strangely intriguing image. I think it it the lighting that makes the image seem to make me see it at strange.
