    Sounds like the same story about a new theatre they built in Los Angeles several years ago. The siding had many concave curves and was made out of a reflective steel. Some of it had a brushed finish and some of it had a smooth finish (to reflect the sunlight). Unfortunately, one of the concave bends was smooth and reflected onto the apartment complex next door. After a few small fires and residents complaining of the heat during the afternoon hours, the builders refaced the concave section of the theatre to a brushed finish, which no longer reflected the heat.

      Don't you think you're all being a bit cynical? At least the photographers got great shots without having to set up any lighting.
