The Cira Center is one of my favorite buildings in Philadelphia. I was rushing to get to the other side to capture the best lighting when I saw the sun shining right through the building and some golden reflections of other buildings. I ended up taking some night shots too which I'll post on a later date.
I won't be blogging very much this weekend but I'll try to check in and take care of Linky problems. Just Three weeks until I leave Pennsylvania for California. It's getting hectic but It's pretty exciting too.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Wow, what a stunning image.
Great shot James! Beautiful! How is the back doing?
when your blog opened I just sat here and said "Wow" over and over
this is wow/wonderful James :)
Holy Crap James...that's an awesome shot. Glad to hear I'm not the only one that runs to get a shot. My sense of sanity has returned. Get packing!!
This picture is so strange it's almost frightening.
I've got a bit left behind with where you are at - have even been wondering if you are settling in Paris . . . but you are moving to California?
Hope your back is not causing you too much trouble.

Your today's reflection is absolutely fabulous!
You must be among towers of boxes and luggage..Best wishes!
Wow, James! I was pleasantly surprised to see SUCH a brilliant reflection from you today! This one is the "icing" on the cake!!! It's such a golden find and capture! Welcome 'back' to California, James. Take care of your back during the move...just be careful!!!
Beautiful composition with nice contrast. A reflection magic. Very beautiful.
Perfect James. Your efforts all came together at the decisive moment when the light was just right. I like this one -- a lot.
A most unusual reflection, it's spectacular.
great golden image!
Another amazing reflection, James.
I'm speechless! What a unique image!
I've been without a computer for a while...are you moving to California?
Hope your back is feeling better.

Beautiful reflection of that building! I see a colorful and rainbow like arch in the background from the sun light!
Stunning reflection, James! I love it! Hope you have a great weekend! You and I are both in the middle of a move!! Mine isn't as big or far as yours, but at this stage of the game it's big enough! Mine will be over this weekend and I can finally settle!!

Well spotted, James! Great shot.
Oh wow, that approaches biblical proportions! I've never seen anything like it. Truly amazing!
I do so envy your cross-country trip! I did it 4 years ago but it was before I got into photography. It was a fabulous time and I have many wonderful memories of people and places. Hopefully you'll get a chance to blog from the road here and there.
Happy Trails!
L'immeuble est beau, mais avec ce reflet, il est ... magnifique ! Très belle image !
Splendid!
The building is so beautiful and modern and the traditional building reflected is amazing as well!
Bravo! :)

It looks surreal! Wonderful shot.
James, breathtaking photo! Building is fusing with gold!! Your shot is beyond my vocabulary. Have a nice weekend.
you may have outdone yourself with this one :)
Wow ! Wild lighting and crazy image on the tower glass... no wonder you stopped to click a few.
So what's the scoop, are you moving ??? Drop me an email if you have a minute, I'd love to hear what's going on these days...
To the 39 comments preceding me I can only add; Wow! amazing.
Now, that is just the bomb! It is as if you took a shot of Americana and then put that glorious slice of blue and respendent gold on it - wow!
I was in Paris when you spilled the news about your move and only just found it by your reference here today. I wish the very best for you two and will faithfully follow both your blogs... wishing you a safe and easy move, my friend.
Bises,

First I saw an Buddha being reflected. Probably a unique moment, as well as your picture.
Please have a good weekend ahead.

It looks surreal. Wow!
Gold medal winner! I suspect there are only a few days in spring and fall when you can get that combination of light and reflection.

I just found your blog and putting you on my list of things to do. I love your puddle shot of Willy Penn and human.
Wow, as usual. Even the parking lot doesn't hurt this fabulous shot, just adds compositionally and in mood as well. Love it.
