Being in the unfamiliar environment of big cities this week, I was drawn to reflections in the windows of large buildings.

2. Budapest, behind the fishermen's bastion.

A good self portrait Mike! I like how the reflections actually become the focal point of the images, as they have the stronger light on them. I hope we will see some more of Vienna, if you have some

Thanks, Nigel. The dense crowds in Vienna made photography difficult so I didn't get as many shots as I had expected to but I do have a couple more that might be worth putting up when I have had time to process them.

Really nice set and a very different way of looking at it.
#2 works really well.
I know what i like, If not always why.

Most people simply look at the buildings and never see those reflections. You have not only seen them but you have done a fine job of making them subjects in their own right.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
