Travelers Tower

There are many modern glass-walled office buildings in Hartford's downtown, as well as many older buildings with traditional lines.  I enjoy it when the two collide.  Today's image is of the Travelers Tower bounced off a modern building.


It is Friday, so James' blog Weekend Reflections is again showing photos with reflections.  Take a look.

I wonder how the modern architect would feel if someone told him or her that the best part of his or her design is that it enables a reflected view of the work of another architect.

Good question Dave. And a cool reflection it is.

Re your comment: What? You don't think flowers cry?

I can't think of a more pleasing collision, Jack. Well done.

It reflects beautifully off the modern structure ... Happy week-end Jack.

Not the house, but the BUILDING that Jack built? I wonder.

My very favourite kind of reflection Jack, love the way it goes off into a little peak at the very top.

I like your shot : it just looks like you took the picture on a very hot day, and the heat in the air make every thing blury...

Perhaps that's the only thing I like about modern glass towers, it's reflections. Glad you catch the reflection of the beautiful architecture on its the boring glass surface.

Randy said...

Awesome reflection.

This is just a fabulous shot, Jack! You have a great eye!

Janet said...

I love the old architecture, and I did something similar with my blog today.

Interesting reflection of the old in the new...
