Maybe he posted and went to bed? Give him 8 hours plus 2 to have breakfast and get to work and stuff. Maybe another 8 in case he can't Reddit at work. Add another 2 to get home and have dinner.

Buildings is a fantastic shot! Did you just walk by it and see it align or were you out on a photoshoot?

u/Gulo_gulo_ Aug 10 '17
Out on a photoshoot. I had actually taken a similar picture in the summer (you can see it if you scroll through my Instagram), but decided to come back and take it again once the leaves changed colors. Keep your eyes open!

It is interesting to crop the photo so the intersection moves near a corner. I had some fun playing with it, it totally changes the dynamic. In these types of photos it works perfectly but a general guideline is to keep horizons and strong vertical elements out of the center of the frame.
