Stunning capture! Breathtaking reflection, the clarity is beyond perfect. The merge is so unified it appears the building is transparent. Fabulous work!

Location
This photo was taken at La défense in Paris. It is the business district of Paris. There is a lot of towers and building on this esplanade, and it’s one of those towers.Time
At the middle of the day, not at the best moment but with the clouds it was not a problem to have a great shot.Lighting
With this image, I wanted a perfect reflection of the sky in the building.Equipment
This was shot with a Canon 700D and a 24-70mm Lens. No others equipment was used.Inspiration
I was looking for a perfect reflection with building and a symmetry. This builiding was perfect to take that. The post processing made the rest of the work.Editing
I have used Lightroom CC for the post processing, the best tools for that. I wanted a perfect blue and a perfect reflection with a lot of clarity, but not with a HDR look.In my camera bag
I've begun photography since one year now so I don't have all the equipment that I want yet. But I've always in my bag, my Canon 700D, a 24-70mm USM F/4 lens (Very good lens), a 50 mm f/1.8, a tripod, a ND Variable Filter and a Triggertrap remote for long exposure or Time lapse.Feedback
To obtain this effect, you need a building with a lot of glass (For sure) and cloudy sky to play with symmetry and with a wide angle it would be perfect....
