This is the Holy Family Shrine. Located outside of Omaha in Gretna, Nebraska overlooking the Platte River Valley.
Perched on a hill, it offers a view to drivers traveling along the east west Interstate 80. The beamed frame and glass walls has a stream of running water through the Chapel which inspires prayer and contemplative reflection.

Not enough clarity for the building, I'm afraid; it looks almost artifically bright and the top edge of the building has a pretty distracting halo

Truly the center of attention in this image. Criss-crossing lines are wonderful.

A definite tourist attraction in Nebraska right? The trusses of this building are beautiful cedar and is reminiscent of wheats in the field. The architect's name escapes me at this time but I did study him before in school. My suggestion is that this building is more photogenic from the front entry ;) The sky is a beautiful coloration and the building glows just as a jewel box would at night ;) Good luck!

Wow, the light is amazing. The only thing that drags it down is that it's little soft and it seems to be taken on a low-budget camera. I'm not going to drag you down for that.

Great subject and wonderful light and colors. Not at all crisp, however.
