Photographer's Note
I thought a change of venue was in order, so I am uploading a photo from our last trip to Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Barnes & Thornburg LLP is a U.S. law firm and lobbying group with 20 offices located in the United States. The firm’s Grand Rapids office is located in the heart of downtown in the iconic “Mirror on Monroe” building.
Here, we see the reflection of McKay Tower on the “Mirror on Monroe” building. "The location of McKay Tower is where the first non-Native American marriage took place in Grand Rapids in 1834, only a few years after settlers arrived and the area was surveyed as part of the Michigan Territory. The first two floors of McKay Tower were built in 1915 and the building was then known as the Grand Rapids National Bank. Another 11 floors were added between 1921 and 1927. In 1942, the tower was bought from the Grand Rapids National Bank by Grand Rapids businessman and politician, Frank D. McKay. In the early 1940s, two additional mechanical floors were added to the tower. n January 2020, the Match-e-be-nash-she-wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan and the Huron Band of the Potawatomi purchased McKay Tower." (Gleaned from Wikipedia.)

Hello Murat,
The glass building provided you with a perfect mirror that made the dull weather look nicer. It shows some of the changes taking place in the city. The yellow car is an added good eye-catcher.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello Murat,
A great cityscape from this American city. Fantastic reflections in the large glass faηade and they are nicely surrounded by the street at right and in the foreground. That yellow car makes a great addition also.

Hi Murat,notable change of location, from Turkey to Michigan and the differences are immediately noticeable, buildings that allow you to capture brilliant reflections in their windows, here we also have a touch of history with the reflected palace, the very soft PP is very original, usually pushes a lot about the details with photos like this. Have a nice evening and thanks,Luciano

Hello Murat,
It's always fun to combine old and new, and to play around with reflections, too. :-) This glass facade makes the perfect mirror, and the history of this spot is interesting, too. Take care!

Hi Murat,
I was confused at first, I tried to find some minarets around and something felt not right ha ha
Very interesting effect here: the reflecting building shows the sky in slightly different color. And the one behind, in yet a different color again.
In spite of the bad weather the result is so very photogenic.
Very well done,
M

The street scene with a building reflection, well made despite the gray sky and low light condition, Murat.
Also, good colors cast in contrast.
Have a nice new day,
Ike
