This is such an interesting picture --the architecture is a great focal point, and there's also little surprises off to the side: the people, the reflections, the song lyrics, etc. I love the graininess and the vignetting, too!

Intriguing shot with all that different shapes and the mirroring. Well done!

Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, Spain
Good title for this architecture. The photo works very well, it has a goob b/w and contrast, and the little bit of noise and the focus vignetting in the main object work very well.

Hi Steve,
I love the processing, remembers me the good old days of the Delta 3200 film, the B&W is so typical. The composition with the reflection of the building is just building a wall, a tunnel where all the scene is shot.A great picture.
Olimpia is somewhere north west isn't it? Washington or Oregon? So have a nice day, for me it's time to go to sleep.

@10Fraction: Yes. Olympia is the capital of Washington State and is part of the region referred to as the Pacific Northwest.
Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
A delightful application of that reflective surface. Nicely seen.

Not sure if your wild thing title is related to the classic troggs song but in my mind they go well with this shot. superb shot and great processing

Reminds me of the Guggenheim museum.
Very nice contrast and composition.
