For a photograph that at first glance doesn't look like very much, there's a lot to see if you spend some time with it.

I love how dark and gloomy this photograph is, even though there's lots of sunlight. The reflections on the glass windows on the left seem to have a distant feel about them, like they are longing for something or someone.

I really enjoy how the tree in the center seems to have decided to grow around the building and almost looks like it is leaning against it, aware of the building's presence yet playful about its proximity. (editor's note)

I totally love the third photo. The reflections, the tree, the vanishing point perspective, the sky and clouds. It's all good.

Yup! Isn't it awesome to come across a photograph like that. A hidden gem that most wouldn't think to study if you were browsing through Flickr.
