This is the Boston University Center for Computing & Data Sciences with a convenient late sunset color background. This recently constructed building was built with the intent of conveying a stack of books, but many people have applied the name "Jenga Building" to it, much to the chagrin of the architect. This photo captures the last light of the sun reflected from a couple of the "books" and I brought out the internal lighting using Lightroom.
The 2nd photo is an interesting LR Classic phenomenon: I took multiple bracketed exposures of the building shots and for the photo below, I tried applying the auto level transform because my brain was having issues telling if the building was level. It's turns out that Lightroom had more problems than me!
As far as we can guess, Lightroom decided that the diagonal lines of the top two levels and the lower levels represented "straight". We got a good chuckle out of that. Interestingly, it was only this specific photo that triggered this behavior: the first photo did not react this way when auto level was applied.
