Date limitation is silly. Lots of great picks missing because of this. It is also not one of the building we needed to avoid ;-)

His other entry in this challenge clearly has a changed date. The NYC cowboy picture is years old. He commented in that one and this one about the date rule being stupid - and you call my comment nasty? He disregarded the hosts rule!

Very cool image. The lighting (bright spot) really adds to the image. Nice mood, look, and feel in general. Congrats on the win.
