My guess is that you focus on the subject (middle part), push the shutter button and at the same time zoom out which explains the elongated lights
around the subject and most probably you mounted the cam in a tripod or if not, you held your cam very steadily.
My second guess is that you may be in a moving vehicle(closing in on the subject) and click on the shutter
and the cam may be mounted on a tripod or just hold it very steadily.
Well, these are my guess, I might be wrong.

Thank you so much for helping me out about that photo. I didn't use tripod, so I guess I was doing exactly what you've said that I was pressing the shutter and zooming at the same time.

I didn't do anything except that I darkened part of the edge.
This is the Cleveland clinic (Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health) in downtown Vegas
designed by Frank Ghery and otherwise called "last crazyness"

BTW, your "Checker Board" is great. I had a similar shot but yours
is more interesting.

yeah, and we both thought of an idea of turning a building facade into
some kind of a pattern of some thing.

the one below is the product of transforming a shot of a ceiling lighting fixture (on the left)
(at Sea-Tac Airport) into a sort of an abract arts by photoshopping. Pick you choice, anyone?

"Transformation"
