It's an OK photo considering it's a mobile phone shot.  I mean you can see the flare and noise and such, but it's still ok.  At least you got a shot.

What phone do you have?  I do enjoy the reflection.  That looks like it took some serious time to make.  Where is this?

I always have mine with me for this reason, interesting shot of a very intriguing sculpture.

This is in the lobby of Benaroya Hall, home of he Seattle Symphony. I was waiting to get in to a concert, and grabbed the shot. Then, leaving, I  slipped on a wet steel plate, and tore a quad. So, this will be my last for a bit.
I'm using a Lumia 920. And, Thanks to all for commenting!:cheers:

David!  How you been doing?!  How is your granddaughter doing? 


John... for me, it's a good example of why you always need to have your camera ready to go!  Cool shot.  Is this the same fixture from a few months back?
