Irving: Convention Center

Keeping with my new goal of capturing architecture at night, I ran out to Irving at dusk in hopes of snapping a few nice shots of the building.  It was my first glimpse of the building at night with the architectural lighting turned on.  I'm not sure who the lighting designer was for the project, but I must say that I disagree with some of the solutions.  It's hard to be a critic on the topic, as I know how tough it is sometimes to get lights installed where you want them and where they will work best.  I was more concerned with the lumen output and varying intensity of the different light sources - it creates some unnecessary glare on the exterior.  Overall though, I thought the project turned out pretty well.
