I like the way you did this, and the result is outstanding. A great example of how using flash in the daytime combined with some underexposure can give you an original result, compared to just pointing and shooting in Program mode. The de-emphasis of the building makes the sign pop, and the sky is terrific. Since the flash didn't reach the streetlamp and most of the wires, they are in silhouette--which is perfect against the clouds. Lots of diagonal lines is always a plus, too. You were really thinking, and it shows.
I have broken the links to hundreds and hundreds of photos, which will take a long time to repair. The workaround is to replace "photo.matthewpiers" in the link URL with "matthewpiers.smugmug". Awkward, but only temporary.
This is happening because I have revamped matthewpiers dot com. More of what I write and photograph will be going there, so check it out as well.
