Seoul Skyscraper Reflections Black and White Architectural Photography
Mirrored Towers Beneath the Sweep of a Curving Facade
Walking around this tower in Seoul's Seocho District, I kept finding new arrangements of the surrounding city in its glass. This view brought several reflected buildings together beneath the facade's sweeping upper curves. I photographed it in black and white to concentrate on the meeting of those straight reflected towers and the building's own flowing lines.
The low angle makes the window ribs spread wide at the bottom and gather toward the roof. Between them, other skyscrapers rise through the glass in separate sections, their rectangular forms interrupted by the panel grid. A dark reflected tower near the centre gives the lower half of the photograph a strong vertical shape. Above it, the facade changes direction in a broad wave before meeting the pale, clouded sky.
I spent time circling the building because even a small change in my position rearranged what appeared on its surface. The soft light held detail in both the glass and its darker divisions, giving me room to work with the reflections without losing the tower's outline. I like how this composition asks the eye to move between two sets of architecture: the surface close to the camera and the city carried inside it. The repeated ribs keep the view ordered, while the mirrored buildings add a second layer to discover.

About My Fine Art Photography
Every photograph in my collection comes from my own travels, explorations, and years behind the camera.
I create my work as photographic art rather than mass-produced decoration. From street portraits and abandoned places to landscapes, architecture, and the unusual subjects I discover along the way, each image begins with something that made me stop and look.
My photographs are available in multiple sizes so the same image can work in anything from an intimate wall space to a large statement installation.
