Tempe Center for the Arts at Night
Feel free to use as your iPad or computer wallpaper.
I just love reflecting pools and when I saw that the Tempe Center for the Arts (TCA) had one I just had to go back at night and take a shot. And when I noticed it was a both a nearly windless night and a cloudy night I was even more stoked since the reflections would show well and I could play with the white balance on the camera getting just the look I wanted.

Tripod mounted Canon EOS 5D Mark II camera and Canon EF 17-40mm F/4L USM zoom lens RAW image converted to JPEG with Canon Digital Photo Professional adjusted and cleaned up in Photoshop CS3 Mac.
Some info from Wikipedia:
Designed by Barton Myers Associates of Los Angeles and Architekton of Tempe the Center features a roof made of complex geometric folded plates. The roof is highly visible from the surrounding freeways and the man-made Tempe Town Lake, which occupies the natural watercourse of the Salt River, immediately adjacent to the site. It is also visible by many airplanes landing at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, two miles west of the building.
