Aah, buildings at night - one of my favourite photographic subjects. Usually I prefer to shoot this kind of thing when there's still a tiny bit of blue in the sky, but in this case I like the inky blackness. The exposure looks perfect. I wonder if portrait format would have emphasised the soaring height of the skyscrapers more than landscape though?

Wow, that is a cool building! Photo is excellent. I really like the angle, makes it look a mile tall. Good job!

Ooh, lovely! The lighting works incredibly well here -- it looks like one of those drawings of 'cities of the future' from old SF magazines.

Wow. Surreal. Looks like science fiction. Nice work!

Assuming that one or both towers sway in the wind what keeps the elevated walkway in place ... either from getting squashed or from being pulled out of place?

Great composition, perfect exposure.

the walkway rests on a suspension of sorts, allowing it to move independantly of the towers.

That's the tallest building in the world, isn't it? Shouldn't Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta Jones be hanging off the walkway? Seriously, a beautiful shot of a beautiful building.
