Good shot !

Superb capture Tara. God bless.

Interesting textures and details, the palm tree is a nice extra!

Gorgeous old architecture. Again you have used a fabulous point of view.

They knew how to build to impress!

I could do a jayfar and say this is a very 'telling' photo.....

Ok, first, Andrea, GROAN! I agree, they put character in the buildings back then. And what a beautiful milky blue in the windows.

I could bank on someone bringing me into the comments !!! Lol. Nice bit of architecture Tara.

Cool capture...

Beautiful stone facade and windows.

Bank & Windows. Two words that Make Gatesy grin. What a cooio POV too Tara.

Beautiful window with the palm peeking in the corner. Well seen and captured. :)

Love these architectural details, and the signs of weathering only make them more beautiful. Great capture!

Good exemple of XIXth architecture

Love images like this. Well done! We are going back to NYC next weekend. This time I am bringing my real gear. Hope to get many images there.

beautiful construction great capture

lovely

Beautiful old building, I like the architecture.

A great shot of this wonderful architecture, Tara!

Well, since Andrea and Jeff have added their bank puns, I'll say I took an Interest in the shot the minute it went up. I bet it sounded great---would make a great CD. I love the columns, they have fine Capitals---and I bet they get bigger with age! (Capital Gains???) Fuggeddit!! I tried. (I'm trying DESPERATELY to come up with something on "amortization and accretion," but it'll take me all day, it won't be funny, and it won't have s___ to do with your image. I'll move on...) I'm skipping, Tara, only because I'm not back for a full return, just a day or two, so forgive that I'm doing only some of your images. I'll do more next time. But I skipped to this because it's a fine capture of just what it is---a beautiful inset set of 3 arched windows, with simple beautiful detail, and fine deep shadows and blues. And we get a nice bunch of rust on the top middle arch, and below too. Real visceral architectural seeing. I wouldn't have guessed a bank, but it's formal enough to be one. And the greenery in the bottom, which could have been an intrusion, is presented darkly and strongly, and so becomes a real accent. A fine architectural shot. I bet you had to empty your cache to do this, or something like that. (Cache and Cache Equivalents? Ok, I'm through.) Experienced architectural photography, Tara!

Nice capture Tara. It doesn't matter where or in which country, bankers always manage to build fantastic buildings - with your money!
