This shot was taken inside the WTC Cosmo Tower, Osaka. At 256 metres it's the tallest structure in western Japan. The above area was the non-touristy part with lifts going up to the various companies that inhabit the building. I'd planned on producing a straight HDR shot, but while post processing discovered I liked the inverted look so went for something in the vein of The Matrix.

 

The view from the top of this place is jaw dropping. I'll post some shots shortly. If you visit I recommend going at night, you'll be treated to a spectacular 360 degree unhindered panorama. Take a small tripod too as there is a wide rail to lean on all the way around =)
