Original – The Walt Disney Concert Hall, with the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion to the far right, the two main buildings in the Los Angeles Music Center, Los Angeles, California, USA
Reason
Many years ago we had a FP of the Walt Disney Concert Hall which was subsequently delisted. Another image failed a couple of noms. Regardless, this is a vast improvement. High resolution, good quality, a rare shot that actually shows the whole building without being cutoff or hugely warped (compare to other images), as well as showing the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion to image right also giving it good EV for Los Angeles Music Center. Admittedly it's a sod of tough place to photograph well, with the curved and highly reflective surface creating both strong highlights and shadows, and its location jammed onto a busy LA street leaving little wriggle room both in terms of getting a suitable location and avoiding excessive traffic, especially for a multi-image pano. Meh; there's some building off in the background.
