This allows some interesting reflections to be captured. In the following image, the &#8220;Cash Register Building&#8221; (Wells Fargo Building) is reflected. I included the glow from a window in public library for this image.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6116\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/matchgrun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1536-0062-Reflections-Of-Cash-Register-Building.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6116\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6116\" src=\"https:\/\/matchgrun.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/1536-0062-Reflections-Of-Cash-Register-Building.jpg\" alt=\"1536-0062-Reflections-Of-Cash-Register-Building\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6116\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Reflections Of Cash Register Building<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Finally we got started with the photowalk. After making group shots, I made this image of the columns of the public library, making sure to include the sky at &#8220;blue hour&#8221;.
