Hi Tony
welcome to TE, i think this is my first time viewing your gallery.
you're right, this one does have a unique graphical nature to it, affecting the eyes a bit.
it would make for a great jigsaw puzzle!
an effective city collage photo

OH MY GOODNESS
HOW MUCH RIGHT YOU HAVE AND HOW MUCH UGLY CAPITAL WE HAVE EXCEPT SOME SMALL GRAPHICAL CORNERS !
WE HAVE DESTROYE ATHENS SPLITING SO MUCH CEMENT AND GROWING UP SO MANY BLOCK OF UGLY BUILDINGS WHICH THEY MAKE THE CITY AWFULL.
ALL THIS CATASTROPH WAS DONE AT THE PERIOD OF "HUDA" [DICTATORSHIP] 1967 - 1974.
THE DICTATOR Mr GEORGE PAPADOPULOS WANTED TO HAVE GOOD RELATIONS WITH THE CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES (i.e. MONEY IN POCKETS) SO HE LET THEM DID WHATEVE THEY WANT WITHOUT ANY CONTROL. CLASSICAL BUILDINGS DESTROYED IN ORDER TO BUILDED SUCH MONSTERS.
AND HERE IT IS THE RESULT.
YOUR PHOTO REMINDS ME A BIG PUZZLE GAME !

BYTHE WAY I USED TO LOVE THE CITY AND ITS CRAZY RYTHM.
WHENEVER YOU COME INFORM ME TO WALK YOU AROUND !
HAVE A NICE SUNDAY MY FRIEND
