This series is just out of this world. I love that you can create these bizarre sci-fi geometric light projections out of an actual stationary building. CBD75 is probably best because of the range of colors, but this one is great too. It somehow feels lower tech, though of course neither of them represents any actual piece of technology and were created the same way. They remind me of this: [castle.inf]
But yours are from the real world, while that one is completely made up. That's what I think is cool about yours. I saw that other one a long time ago and figured the only way to make something like it was with a computer.

Glad you like this series, it's certainly a huge amount of fun for me. I walk around beijing with my tripod and point it at anything that i think will make an interesting image... then i have to figure out what angels make the best composition.
I think to your point, if i sat on a computer, i'd never even think of these images, i couldn't make them up. I'm sure i'll be out again this weekend.

As you suggested it, I looked into it. The big expanse of black at the top is only 5% shy of total photoshop black, so that's ok (in my book anyway)... when i adjust levels to bring the blacks at the bottom into line, the contrast screws up the subtle tones in the orange stuff. So, its a trade off.

i base things on what i see not what photoshop says tbh, but if you like. i guessed the contrast might have some negative effect, so fair enough.
