WOW with my mouth open so much to view as to think this is cool warm hugs, Linda
Wonderful building and a very interesting point of view.
An awesome POV of this beautiful structure Bill!!!
Very nice Bill!
fantastic shot !
This is a fantastic shot and POV Bill. Super DOF.
Excellent shot!
Such a dramatic angle and an exciting compoition! Amazingly different from Tara's and just as wonderful.
Effective composition.
Nice shot of a historic building. Built in the roaring '20s. Yup! Quite obvious, considering the decorations. Who'd spend money today on friezes so high up few even notice them? The converging and intersecting lines give an idea of height here. Interesting - the green shows in the sunlit part, but vanishes completely in the shadow; high contrast here. I wonder how the grren would have appeared if this were a cloudy (or rainy) day. I wonder who does the windows and polishes the gilding. Keep up the good work! :-)
Stunning capture and post work Bill. God Bless.
Impressive capture of it.
Wonderful capture of this beautiful building
Like the image Bill! As far as the architect's vision, well lets just say you've done a better job with this shot!
superb angle my friend
It's a marvelous creation, this building; I wish there were more like this around. Love the neck-craning POV, showing the heavens up above, and the bottom view of that scrumptious lamp post!
Neat shot. I especially like the street light.
Xcellent photograph!
Spectacular shot, Bill. I really like the perspective here and that lamppost in the foreground works perfectly. Well done.
this POV and sunlighting is excellent too!!
i love the composition it so dynamic and full of interest
A most fabulous building and capture. !
I love the lights, great building!!!
good POV of that classical building
nice shot
Great pic and POV Hugs Susan~
Roaring 20s is right! I can just imagine the tommy guns and gang warfare now. Outstanding POV employed in this magnificent image, Bill. Stellar clarity, sky, lighting effects, even the balls at the lower right, a lamp post I assume.
Well it has lasted a lot longer than a champagne bottle would have. I love the mellow look of it and the lights go so well with it too. An excellent photo from a great POV.
Wonderful perspective!
What an outstanding image! You already know how much I like this one. :*
