A bit different
These two images are an oddity for me in that they aren't my normal "style" whatever that may be. They are both different yet have similar feel to me. Both shots were taken at New Parliament House in Canberra with my 28-70 f/2.8 lens. The first one was taken in the underground car park, the second from the roof. Let me know what you think even if you think they are junk!. Click an image to see it larger.

hey peter, i like number one more, number two doesn't do much for me. i think if you cropped just the very top off number one it might look a bit smoother, i like the colours of number 1 too.
thanks. Nathan

I have to take a different view to Nathan, something attracts me to photo #2 in an abstract way. Just mucking around in PS and came up with this:
 President, A.A.A.A.A (Australian Association Against Acronym Abuse)
Canon EOS R6, RF 24-105 F4, RF 70-200 F4, RF 35mm F1.8, RF 16mm F2.8 "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:32)
If number two had some other focal point in the third window along (left to right) I think it would have worked better than it did, or as a contrast nothing in the first window. I still like the photo though, it is the opposite of a traditional art gallery, where a photo is framed on the wall rather than the wall being the frame to the landscape. It appeals to me.
Both compositions are very geometric with the shapes on offer. The lighting in the first is very interesting..the shadows adding separation mid-frame between dark and light.
I can't help but feel that the white triangle to the left in the second is too dominating and breaks the general tone of the photo..Having said that, it is a very strong geometric composition with the three squares reminiscent of the slot machines 
The first one is great, love it.
The second one, in my opinion is let down by the background, which just does nothing for me.
